Spay-Neuter Resources

ASPCA Spay/Neuter Alliance

The ASPCA Spay/Neuter Alliance provides education and training on high-volume, high-quality, low-cost spay and neuter. Training is provided for veterinary students, private practice veterinarians, veterinary technicians, veterinary assistants, and administrators.

Humane Canada Spay/Neuter Toolkit

Animal welfare organizations and veterinarians widely agree that a key solution to the crisis of overpopulation and homelessness of companion animals is accessible, affordable spay/neuter surgery. Furthermore, accessible spay/neuter initiatives have positive outcomes for public health and safety, which translates to  reduced public spending.
