If a resident of Newmarket, NH:
We have partnered with Newmarket Police Department to provide residents of the town of Newmarket, NH an opportunity to register their dog for their license with the town during the rabies vaccine clinic with a representative of the town. If you are a resident of Newmarket, NH and plan to do this, please plan accordingly and bring necessary paperwork and fees:

APPOINTMENT TIME:
Appointments are spaced approximately 5 minutes apart.
We will request that you arrive on time, but note that the timing your pet will be seen is approximate.
Occasionally, there may be a 10-15 minute wait. This is because some pet owners will not arrive on time as well as the fact that some animals can be unpredictable and need more time to receive their vaccine. Your patience is appreciated.
*Please ensure all cats are secured in a pet carrier, and all dogs must be leashed.*
CAN ANY DOG OR CAT BE VACCINATED AT THIS CLINIC:
The staff at the NHSPCA are all trained in Fear Free handling and utilize those methods. However, the pace of this clinic is very fast. Pets that are reactive to other animals or extremely sensitive to veterinary procedures, mild restraint or strangers are recommended to receive vaccines in a full-service veterinary setting where veterinary staff can go very slow, and the pet can avoid being around sensitivity triggers such as lots of other people, cars and animals.
If your animal has a history of biting, please have them muzzled in advance. This promotes safety for all involved.
WHAT WILL MY PET RECEIVE AT THIS CLINIC:
- This clinic is for Rabies Vaccines only. Other services or vet exams are not possible.
- If your pet is pregnant, unwell, experiencing signs/symptoms of illness or has wounds of unknown origin (as in they have been outside and the source of the wound is not known), they cannot be vaccinated at this clinic.
WILL MY PET RECEIVE A 1-Year or 3-Year RABIES VACCINE?:
Your pet qualifies for a 3-Year Rabies vaccine if both of the following are true:
- You can provide the most recent Certificate of Vaccination to the New Hampshire SPCA (via upload in the online registration form or by email to clinic@nhspca.org)
- The date of the NHSPCA Rabies Vaccine Clinic is not after the due date noted on that Certificate
Your pet qualifies for a 1-Year Rabies Vaccine if any of the following are true:
- You do not have an up-to-date Certificate of Vaccination
- You have a Certificate, but the due date has lapsed
- Your pet has never been vaccinated
Previous Rabies Vaccines can only be validated with a copy of a rabies certificate. Previous rabies tags or vet clinic invoices are not sufficient forms of verification.
