Spay & Neuter Scheduling Update

All spay and neuter surgeries are fully booked through the end of January. Due to a temporary shortage of veterinarians, we are pausing online spay and neuter scheduling for February as we work to stabilize our surgical capacity.

Any limited February appointments will be offered to existing patients who are current on vaccinations. We expect the March surgery schedule to be available online in mid-February.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to continue providing safe, high-quality care.

IMPORTANT: Spay/Neuter Surgery Requirements & Restrictions
Dog Spay or Neuter $300*
Cat Spay or Neuter$150
Rabbit Spay or Neuter$300*
