Spay/Neuter Resources

Spaying or neutering your pet has a lot of benefits helping them to live a happy and healthy life. The procedure can increase your dog/cat’s chance of a longer life by reducing the risk of cancer and it can help reduce unwanted behaviors such as spraying or a pet’s desire to roam. Plus, one unaltered pet and their offspring can produce thousands of puppies/kittens in a lifetime leading to unwanted litters in shelters.

Community resources including Lollypop Farm’s Spay/Neuter Incentive Program (S.N.I.P.) are helping to ensure this important procedure for every pet.
