Know it's warm weather, the sun feels so nice on our frozen bones, but we need to be careful while in the woods and outside.
We had our first ever confirmed case of a rabid raccoon in Weathersfield, Vt.
This is in an area that we walk, ride our horses, exercise our dogs, etc.
Please, please be careful. If you notice any animal that is acting strangely, please notify the local police or animal control.
Here are a couple of links with a wealth of information about rabies.
One for adults: http://healthvermont.gov/prevent/rabies/Rabies.aspx
One for kids: http://www.cdc.gov/rabiesandkids/
Stay safe, everyone, and make sure ALL your animals vaccines are up to date.
