Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Chapter, a dog need not be vaccinated for rabies during an illness if a licensed veterinarian has examined the dog and certified in writing that such vaccination should be postponed because of a specified illness or condition. Old age, debility, and pregnancy are not considered contraindications to rabies vaccination. Exemption certificates are subject to approval of the Animal Control Division and shall be valid only for the duration of the illness. Exemption from vaccination does not exempt the dog from the licensing requirement.
