Pittsburgh County now has its 21st case of rabies so far this year. Animal Services Friday received positive rabies lab results for a raccoon that was found near West Hill Avenue and Rosewood Cemetery Road Thursday by an animal control officer responding to a resident's request. For more information, call the animal services of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The raccoon was submitted to the state rabies laboratory for testing because it was found dead in the resident's driveway when she returned home after being gone for several hours in the morning. Two household dogs were outside during her absence at the time the raccoon was discovered. They are suspected of having contact with the raccoon, not only because of their close proximity but because saliva was observed on the coat of the raccoon. Animal and carcass removal services in Pittsburgh County is dedicated to helping Pennsylvania and Pittsburg.
If a dog or cat has a current rabies vaccination -- as the dogs in this case do -- it is not necessary for the owner to decide whether to release the animal to be euthanized or to quarantine the animal for a six-month period at a veterinary clinic. Instead, state law requires that the animal receive a booster shot within 72 hours of any suspected rabies exposure; and the owner of the two dogs is getting the rabies booster shots for her dogs within that time period. Allegheny County animal control says it will continue to help with domestic animal issues, but not with Pennsylvania wildlife problems.
It didn't appear initially that any members of the household had any contact with the raccoon itself or the two involved dogs. Of the 21 cases, all but four have involved raccoons. Also testing positive were two foxes, a bat and a dog. animal Services is offering its last low-cost rabies clinic of the year today. The clinic is scheduled from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Pittsburg County Animal Shelter off Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. The vaccination fee is $5, which must be paid in cash. If possible, be sure to bring your cat or dog's most recent vaccination certificate. Dogs must be on leashes and cats must be in carriers. Animals that may be fractious should be kept in a vehicle where a veterinarian will vaccinate them. Allegheny County animal services in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, declined to comment on the situation.
