All outside dogs coming to campus for the Octoberfest walk should have a copy of their current rabies certificate; current on their distemper/parvo vaccines; and have had a negative stool sample within the year. We ask if your dog is experiencing issues with diarrhea or has any upper respiratory symptoms that they do not attend the walk on campus.

Please submit your rabies certificate below or bring a copy with you.

Please note that for the safety of our working Fidelco dogs our canine guests cannot participate in the kennel tour on the campus. They are most welcome outside for our demonstrations, car show, and on the Walk for Fidelco.
