SPAY & NEUTER PROGRAMS
OUR SPAY & NEUTER PROGRAMS
One of the major causes of neglect, abuse and mistreatment of dogs worldwide is overpopulation. Due to a lack of education and enforcement about neutering and spaying pets, there is a major surplus of homeless and unwanted animals. Whether this leads to cases of abuse and neglect, or more extreme cases of dogs being readily available to replace food in certain countries around the world, the problem of overpopulation leads to vulnerable animals with no advocates, no one to protect them, and no one to take ownership or responsibility.
In partnership with SPAY4LA, Vanderpump Dogs will be able to offer once a month free/low cost Spay and Neuter services for low income residents of Los Angeles. A walk-up low-cost vaccine clinic will also be available on the same day to offer vaccinations for Rabies, Bordetella and DHPP as well as flea and tick prevention medication.
The goal of the program is to provide 30-35 pet sterilizations on each occasion for low income residents of the City / County of Los Angeles. Additionally, we will utilize the SPAY4LA van to conduct sterilization of our own rescues. With this program, we will provide vital education and awareness regarding the importance of spay and neutering while combating the extreme overpopulation of cats and dogs in the City / County of Los Angeles. We hope to continue to expand upon this program with the ultimate goal of owning and operating our own Spay and Neuter vehicle in the future.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
Our Spay & Neuter Initiatives can cost thousands of dollars a month, and it is our goal to support these programs through a combined effort of sponsorship, peer-to-peer fundraising, and donations.
