YDR Pets | Harrison Forbes will share pet travel tips Saturday at ...

The Freedom Toyota Pet Expo will be 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, July 14 at Freedom Toyota, 6060 Allentown Blvd., Harrisburg, PA. The Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance and other animal organizations will exhibit and provide activities, including pet travel tips from celebrity animal trainer Harrison Forbes.

Pet diversions are a leading cause of distracted driving crashes. This issue takes on special significance as families ? and their pets ?- hit the vacation roads this summer.

While cars are designed to fit and protect people, pet needs are different and they require modified methods to help insure everyone?s highway safety. That?s why Forbes is coming to Central PA to educate local pets and their human families on safe animal travel this summer.

The film and television animal expert, host of the national radio show Pet Talk, and best-selling author of ?Dog Talk? will share pet travel tips, greet local pets, answer questions about animal behaviors, and sign autographs at Freedom Toyota in Harrisburg this Saturday, July 14. The event, co-sponsored by the Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance, is free. All area pets and their families are invited to attend.

Forbes also has appeared on numerous television programs, including ?The Today Show,? ?Live with Regis and Kelly,? and ?Larry King Live.? He has trained and imported more than 700 police service dogs and trained dogs in Hollywood for major motion pictures, including Francis Ford Coppola?s ?The Rainmaker.?

CPAA will offer a low-cost vaccine and microchipping clinic for cats and dogs during the expo. Sign-in will begin at 10:30 a.m., with the clinic starting at 11 a.m. The clinic is first-come, first-served. Vaccines offered are rabies, distemper and bordetella (kennel cough) for $10 each. Microchipping will be available for $25, which includes registration. De-wormer will also be available for a donation. All payments must be made in cash or by check.

All dogs should be on short leashes (no chains, please) and cats in secure pet carriers. BREEDERS WILL NOT BE SERVICED.

Dr Melissa McFarland, DVM, with Good Hope Animal Hospital, 6108 Carlisle Pike, Mechanicsburg, PA, will be the clinic veterinarian. Call 717-938-1191 or email pdravk@yahoo.com with questions about this clinic.
