ROCK SPRINGS — The Rock Springs City Council unanimously approved entering into a memorandum of understanding with the Wyoming Veterinary Center (WVC) to provide services at the Animal Control Shelter.
No comments were made on this issue before the vote was taken.
Under the MOU, “WVC agrees to provide vaccinations to specified animals within the city Animal Control Shelter on a needed basis. Medical care or concerns may be brought forth during the visit, but if additional care is needed, an appointment with the veterinarian should be scheduled.”
The MOU goes on to state “The City agrees to pay for antibiotics, surgical waste, medically necessary doctor-approved procedures and medications, including those for small wounds, respiratory infections, and vaccinations, to include rabies and one dose of DA2PPV or RCP, if not already administered.”
Additional vaccinations, services, or medications will not be paid for by the city if it is not included in the MOU.
