Quarantines

A rabies quarantine is a period of observation, either at home, an approved alternate location or the Fresno County Shelter, where the animal suspected of being involved in a bite scratch, or exposure can be watched to determine if there is any danger of the animal transmitting the rabies virus. The quarantine period for most animals is 10 days from the date the exposure occurred. Your pet must be confined to the approved location 24 hours a day until seen and released from quarantine by a health officer.
