Services for Veterinarians

Cook County Animal and Rabies Control offers a number of services for veterinarians and animal hospitals in Cook County. For your convenience all of our forms can be downloaded and printed from the sections below.  

• Annual Rabies Tag Sales and Returns - sales of 1 or 3-year rabies tags are done each year through this program. We also coordinate the return and credit for unused tags.
• Rabies Certificate Submission - either through paper certificate or through our new electronic ACE Paperless certificate program, all rabies certificates must be submitted to our offices, per County Ordinance.
• Annual Spay and Neuter Program - each year, we offer clinics/hospitals a reimbursement for all spay/neutering performed in the month of February.
• Veterinary Reporting System - this service allows veterinarians to voluntarily report disease processes for communicable and zoonotic diseases.
