• Rabies vaccination requirement (2)
  • Website: https://health.mo.gov/providers/manuals/communicable-disease-investigation-reference-manual/rabies-animal

    Rule: Rabies vaccination of animals in Missouri may only be legally performed by a licensed veterinarian (RSMo 322.010, 340.216; 20 CSR 2270-4.031).

    Scope: statewide

    Applies statewide (Missouri). Source: Missouri DHSS Communicable Disease Investigation Reference Manual - Rabies, animal · Checked Nov 5, 2026
  • Rule: Missouri's rabies law is RSMo Chapter 322 (Protection Against Rabies). Section 322.090 empowers county commissions to adopt rules on licensing, impounding, confinement and rabies control and requires them to operate a county dog pound (may contract with cities); 322.030 requires the owner of a dog exposed to a rabid animal to have it treated by a licensed veterinarian or destroyed. Pet vaccination requirements are therefore set by county and city ordinance.
