For that reason, we have vaccinated our animals against anthrax. Mdlongwa also revealed that there has been an increase in cases of dog bites and the department is conducting a vaccination programme for dogs in Matobo and Beitbridge districts. He urged farmers to vaccinate their dogs as prescribed by the Rabies Act of 1978 which states that a dog has to be vaccinated at three months, nine months, 12 months and then after every three years. *More: Chronicle* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
