There will be several over the next month.

The Bridgewater Health Department is holding its annual spring rabies clinics for dogs and cats to be immunized.

Rabies, according to a release, is still a public health concern in New Jersey, particularly coming from raccoons. The best defense, the release said, is vaccinations of domestic animals.

There will be several clinics, and owners can bring their pets to any of them.
