Municipal free pet health campaigns across Argentina, Dominican Republic, Mexico and Venezuela

Municipal authorities in several Latin American capitals are running free veterinary initiatives that combine vaccination, sterilisation, deworming and adoption services. In Argentina, the Río Grande and Olavarría municipalities organised June 27‑28 vaccination and micro‑chip drives, while Paraná scheduled mobile sterilisation and vaccination ops in multiple neighbourhoods. The Dominican Republic’s Distrito Nacional reported a weekend that sterilised 102 dogs and cats, administered over 300 rabies vaccines and more than 10,000 dewormings. Mexico’s capital districts, including the Distrito Nacional in Santo Domingo and the city of Juárez, continued regular free sterilisation and vaccination campaigns, reaching thousands of animals and facilitating adoptions. Venezuela’s Libertador municipality held a free pet‑health day in the Osuna Rodríguez parish, providing veterinary exams, vaccinations and deworming to 50 families. All programs aim to promote responsible pet ownership, control stray populations and reduce zoonotic disease risk.
