Pet owners in DeKalb County can get free veterinary services for their dog or cat this weekend.
On Saturday, Oct. 26, LifeLine Animal Project is hosting “Healthy Pets DeKalb” and offering free vaccinations, microchips, pet food, vouchers for free spaying/neuters, pet supplies and more. LifeLine is a nonprofit organization that manages animal services for DeKalb and Fulton.
The event will take place at Shoal Creek Park II on Glenwood Road in Decatur from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

“We frequently see people turning in their animals to our shelters, because they can't afford veterinary care,” LifeLine said in a statement. The goal of the event is “to keep pets out of the shelters and with the people who love them by making pet care more accessible to all.”
The last time LifeLine held a Healthy Pets event, more than 870 dogs and cats received free veterinary care.
No registration is needed, but it is first-come, first-served.
