With the objective of ensuring the health and protection of domestic fauna on the coast of Aragüeño, a special day of comprehensive veterinary care was held in the Ocumare municipality of the Gold Coast.

The day was led by Manuel Hernández, coordinator of Animal Welfare in the state of Aragua, in coordination with the administration of Mayor Wilmer Leal.

During the operation, specialized teams provided essential preventive medicine and population control services, highlighting the application of sextuple and anti-rabies vaccines, as well as surgical sterilization sessions.

The attention was focused both on pets with homes and on those in a community condition or in a street situation.

In this regard, Manuel Hernández emphasized that this deployment responds to a policy of territorializing animal protection on the coast of the entity. “We are deployed on our coastal axis, fulfilling our commitment to bring free and quality veterinary health to every corner of Aragua. Sterilization and vaccination not only save the lives of our community and companion animals, but they represent direct action for public health and citizen coexistence,” he said.

For his part, Mayor Wilmer Leal explained that in “Ocumare de la Costa de Oro we are committed to an increasingly humane and conscious municipality. Working hand in hand with the regional animal welfare team allows us to provide a timely response to protectionists and neighbors, guaranteeing the right to life and decent care for the animals that make life in our streets and homes.”
