Why can't I bath your dog after vaccination?
This is the common question people asked during the mass vaccination when they were told so, not to give shower on their dogs for next 5days.
The vaccines used to treat your dog as preventative medicine are most likely attenuated vaccines, contain a small live part of the germ it is used to inoculate the dog against. It stimulates an immune response in the canine and these produce the antibodies created to prevent contracting the disease fully. It ...

1st Sep 2018, by SPCA Sarawak
Today, SSPCA and SOS worked closely with the Ministry of Local Government and Housing to survey the stray dog populations in some areas in the Tabuan Jaya area.

Morocco Has Been Dealing With Rabies Since Early 1..
1st Sep 2018, by SPCA Sarawak
Morocco has been dealing with Rabies since early 1900s. Rabies is still endemic in Morocco today. From this chart alone, culling the dog population DID NOT improve the situation, but effective vaccination and neutralisation DOES.
While the numbers are showing trend of improvement, an annual death of 19 is still unacceptable as Rabies is a preventable disease. Their own report suggested Responsible Pet Ownership and Public Awareness as one of the most effective solutions, not short-sighted mass ...

SSPCA Against Culling Of Stray Dogs

SSPCA against culling of stray dogs
Borneo Post, August 31, 2018
KUCHING: The Sarawak Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SSPCA) is calling on the Sarawak government and local councils across the state to compound stray dogs rather than cull them.
While culling may become necessary, there must be a broad acceptance of the fact that culling by itself would not solve the problem, said a statement issued by SSPCA yesterday.
“Much of the problem of stray dogs stems from irresponsible...

This Dog Was Found At The Shoplots Across Our Anim..
28th Aug 2018, by SPCA Sarawak
This dog was found at the shoplots across our animal shelter. An irresponsible citizen had just abandoned the dog.
We discovered that the dog suffered rabies symptoms, and decided to trap it. The dog was humanely put down by our vet, and to send it for laboratory test.
A life, or more, could have been lost, had we not discover it earlier. You, as an irresponsible pet owner, would have murdered the whole community at 7th Mile Bazaar, just because of your ignorance on vaccinating your pet.

Rabies infection is caused by the rabies virus. The virus is spread through the saliva of infected animals. Infected animals can spread the virus by BITING another animal or a person.
Rabies can also be spread when infected saliva gets into an OPEN WOUND or the MUCOUS MEMBRANES, such as the mouth or eyes. This was the case for the 13th victim, a 44year old man.
Seek IMMEDIATE medical care if you're bitten by any animal, or exposed to an animal suspected of having rabies. Based on your injurie...
