The Animal Action League in Joshua Tree cut back its appointments earlier this month due to a tragedy, but the organization has announced that it will offer a few low-cost vaccine and microchip clinics in the last days of December. Clinics will be held from 10 to 2 in Joshua Tree, west of the dinosaurs on Highway 62, tomorrow (December 30), and Thursday (December 31). Clinics are tentatively scheduled in January 11, 12, 13, 20, 21, 28, and 29. No appointments are necessary for vaccines or microchips; appointments are required for spaying and neutering services. Microchips are only $15 and can help reunite you with your lost pet. Everyone who comes to the clinic—whether for spaying or neutering, or low-cost vaccinations or microchips—must stay in their vehicles, wear a mask, and wait for staff to come get your animal. For appointments, call 760-366-1100.
