November 10 from 8 to 11 a.m. during the second annual Arrf-Ritis Walk. The location is John Prince Park, 4759 S. Congress Avenue between Lake Worth Road and 6th Avenue South in Lake Worth.
In celebration of Veterans Day, the special fee for the rabies vaccination is $5, the rabies license tag is $5 and the microchip is $5 per animal. All dogs must be on leashes and cats must be in carriers.
Dogs and cats should be protected against rabies, a fatal disease. A rabies vaccination and tag are required by law for pets four months or older.
