Spay/neuter is the single most effective tool in achieving the end of space or resource-based euthanasia in municipal animal shelters. In just a few years, two adult dogs or cats can produce thousands of puppies or kittens. Do your part to help reduce the number of homeless animals in your community- spay or neuter your pet(s)!
