By spaying or neutering your pet, you’ll help control the pet homelessness crisis. Millions of healthy dogs and cats are euthanized in the United States each year simply because there aren’t enough homes to go around. There are also medical and behavioral benefits to spaying (female pets) and neutering (male pets).

Here are some of the medical benefits:

• Your female pet will live a longer, healthier life. Spaying prevents uterine infections and decreases the incidence of breast tumors, which are malignant or cancerous in about 50 percent of dogs and 90 percent of cats. Spaying your pet before her first heat offers the best protection from these diseases.

• Neutering your male companion prevents testicular cancer and some prostate problems.

Remember!

Do not make an appointment until you get your membership card. You will be e-mailed a digital card, please check your junk or spam folder if you do not receive it. No card will come by mail.

We have noted to the best of our knowledge the extras required by each participating veterinarian. There WILL BE additional charges above the membership spay/neuter rate. Please read the details over carefully and verify what your pet will need when you make the appointment. You may also call ahead of time and speak with the office.

*Memberships cannot be used for feral cats. Cats/kittens must be transported in a pet carrier and not a trap.

Spay/Neuter Voucher Program

Need financial help getting your dog or cat spayed or neutered? Planned Pethood partners with Humane Ohio, where low-cost services typically range from $45–$90 for cats and $175–$225 for dogs.

If you can afford Humane Ohio’s standard pricing, you don’t need a voucher—you can schedule your pet’s appointment directly with them.

If you need additional financial assistance, you may qualify for a voucher through our program. Before you request a voucher, you must already have a Humane Ohio appointment scheduled. Vouchers are limited each month, and you’ll need to submit a separate request for each animal. If a voucher is available, you’ll receive an email confirmation with details to bring to your appointment.

Looking for another low-cost option? We also offer discounted spay/neuter services through our membership program with partner veterinarians. Learn more here.
