Statute overview

About this statute

The mandatory rabies vaccination period ends each year on June 15; dogs not treated after that date are treated as stray for capture and slaughter, and dogs under six months are vaccinated when they reach six months. The Minister of the Gobernación is authorized to issue rules needed to carry out this Decree. Los ayuntamientos deben exigir el arbitrio correspondiente para contribuir a los gastos de los servicios e intervención establecidos. Campaigns against wild carnivores should help in the fight against rabies, and the heads of captured animals of these species, once skinned, are to be sent to Provincial Health Institutes for rabies-lesion examination. En todos los municipios, los perros deben ser registrados y matriculados, y su vacunación es obligatoria a cargo de su dueño.
