- Abstract
Sukabumi District located in West Java Province has not been free from rabies diseases. Thus, rabies should be taken seriously through several control programs. One of the programme were rabies mass vaccination targeting 80% vaccination coverage, however, there is many dog’s owners did not want their dog being vaccinated. This study aimed to determine and to analyze the influence factors on dog vaccination program amongst dog’s owner in Sukabumi District. A total of 141 dogs’ owner was selected as respondents. Data were collected using structured questionnaires by interviewing the respondents. The Chi-Square Test and Gamma Correlation Test were used to determine the influence factors on dog vaccination practice. The result showed that there were three significant factors which influence the dog vaccination : 1) the income level (c2= 41.725, p= 0.000), 2) the experience of dog’s ownership (c2= 15.485, p= 0.006), and 3) the knowledge about rabies (c2= 15.712, p= 0.006). The income level (r=0.503) and the knowledge about rabies (r=0.469) were two factors that influence most with a strong and positive correlation. Based on our results, we can find the solution to alter the attitude and practice of dog’s owner on dog vaccination program. Two influence factors could be improved to increase the participation of dog’s owner to follow the rabies vaccination program
