We offer high quality, low-cost spay/neuter services to the community. Please read all the information below to decide if this program is appropriate for your pet.
Not every pet is a good surgical candidate for the humane society spay and neuter clinic. Some pets are better served being seen in a full-service veterinary facility. Please confirm that your pets meet the following criteria prior to scheduling a surgical appointment with us. Pets with medical conditions, injuries or illness will be declined for surgery and referred to a full-service vet. If your pet has fleas, a flea treatment will be given and you will be charged $6 when you pick up your pet.
Appointments Required
Patients are seen by appointment only.
*Due to high demand, appointments will fill up quickly and are first come, first served.
