Microchipping and vaccination clinic

To keep your dog healthy, happy and safe, Rockhampton Regional Council is helping owners to access affordable vaccinations and microchipping.

Chair of the Planning and Regulatory Committee, Councillor Ellen Smith, said a number of clinics would be held over the coming months to provide C3 vaccinations against three core life-threatening viruses: parvovirus, distemper, and infectious hepatitis, as recommended by the Australian Veterinary Association.

“Council is committed to working with residents to keep their dogs happy, healthy and safe. That is why we are organising to subsidise some of the costs associated with having a dog.

“If you hold an eligible concession card there are significant discounts available to you  so that you can vaccinate your dog without breaking the bank.

“Even if there are no concession cards in your household, microchipping is still available to all for just $10, with Council covering the rest of the cost.”

Dog Vaccinations

C3 vaccinations (parvovirus, distemper, infectious hepatitis) discounted to $15 will be offered for dogs that are owned by a Rockhampton Regional Council resident who can provide one of the following:

  • Commonwealth Seniors Health Card
  • Pensioner Concession Card
  • Health Care Card
  • Newstart Allowance
