Spay/Neuter

Low Cost Spay/Neuter 

Please be a responsible pet owner and prevent your pet from helping to create unwanted animals.  Every day many wonderful pets die due to pet over population.  You can be part of the solution!

WHY is it so important to spay/neuter your pet?

  • Reduces pet over-population which helps reduce euthanasia rates in our county!
  • Reduces potential of different types of cancer in your pet (prostrate cancer, uterine cancer, and more)
  • Reduces the desire to roam and reproduce
  • Reduces urges to mark/spray territories
