  3. Allow your pets to run loose
  4. Try to tame wild animals
  5. Try to capture any wild animal by yourself
  6. Try to vaccinate your own pets against rabies
  7. Destroy the brain of any suspect animal. (If an animal must be destroyed, don't shoot it in the head. The brain must be intact and kept under refrigeration for laboratory examination for the presence of rabies.)
  8. Accept the advice of unqualified persons with regards to rabies

 

To remain properly immunized, a dog or cat must receive two rabies vaccinations one year apart, then one vaccination every three years thereafter.

North Carolina Law: (The owner of every dog and cat over four months of age shall have the animal vaccinated against rabies). In Cumberland County, the owners of dog and cats which have not been vaccinated in accordance with this law are subject to a civil penalty in the amount of $100.
