World Rabies Day

Saturday, September 28

Titling an event “World Rabies Day” rather than “World Rabies Prevention Day” seems like a bit of a marketing misstep, but the intentions are good: Attendees can get their animal companions free rabies vaccinations, pet licenses and microchips. Do this favor for Fido—no one wants things to end like Old Yeller. Free, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., various locations, http://svvma.com.
