Our goal is to make spay and neuter a humanely acceptable and viable means to reduce pet overpopulation, suffering and homelessness.

“Stop Pet Overpopulation Today” (SPOT), our targeted low-income spay/neuter program, subsidizes the surgery provided by local area veterinary clinics to pets of qualified residents in Presidio, Jeff Davis, Brewster and Culberson Counties.
