Spay & Neuter

The first step in making a difference in overpopulation is to Spay & Neuter. We have several options for Free services.  We ask that you be honest so our limited finances are available for pets who truly need them.  Even if you do not qualify for our Free Program, feel free to contact us with "Reduced Cost Information" in the subject line and we'll try to help you find something affordable, although reduced costs vets might be further away or have a longer wait time than usual.  

Free Spay & Neuter, Free Spay & Neuter for Pit Bulls, and Free Community Cat Spay & Neuter

There is no residency requirement for these programs and they are open to people in all surrounding counties.  While we do work with some vets outside of Howard County, depending on where you live we may need to ask you to make your appointment here in Howard County.  We reserve the right to restrict and/or deny services at our discretion.
