Low cost vaccinations, microchipping, and New Castle County dog licenses are available at the clinics, which are held monthly in partnership with and on-site at Concord Pet Foods & Supplies stores throughout New Castle and Kent Counties in Delaware.  All vaccinations are administered by a licensed veterinarian.

Clinics are first come, first served, and cash or checks only are accepted for payment.  Cats must be in hard plastic or cardboard carriers, and dogs must be wearing a collar and non-retractable leash.  Your pet’s most recent previous rabies certificate with veterinarian's signature or stamp must be presented to receive a 3-year rabies vaccination.

Founded in 1957, the Delaware Humane Association (DHA) is Delaware’s first no kill animal shelter and adoption center. We are committed to providing for the needs of homeless dogs and cats in our community. Serving over 5,000 companion animals annually through direct intervention and many more through advocacy, we continue to promote the humane values of protection, care, and compassion for all living things. We envision a future where all people and their pets live healthy, happy and long lives together.

Our mission is to act as a voice for companion animals and to enhance their welfare by providing temporary shelter, low cost spay/neuter services, vaccination clinics, humane education programs, and adoption/placement resources. We rely on the support of the community in the form of volunteers, donations, bequests, and fundraising events.
