Spay and Neuter Basics

Anyone interested in getting their pet spayed or neutered through the humane society should be sure to check the ACHS Web site regularly for information regarding registration for clinics. Here is some basic information regarding prices and the spay and neuter process.

The clinic requires that animals' rabies vaccinations be updated if not current. If your animal does not have a updated vaccines, the clinic will automatically vaccinate the dog/cat for an extra $7. If your pet's vaccinations are updated, bring a copy of the certificate (not tag) along with you to registration.

Financial Assistance

Low income families that may not have the budget for spaying or neutering pets can apply for financial assistance through the ACHS. If you are receiving governmental financial assistance, bring a photocopy the ACHS can keep of necessary paperwork like a Social Securtiy Disability Letter, Ohio Works First schedule letter, WIC letter, or tax returns showing that you fall below the federal poverty line. If you do qualify for the spay and neuter subsidy, you must still pay a copay IN CASH at registration.

  1. This information is very important for people to know, and i don;t think anyone from The Athens County Humane Society has been able to lay it out so clearly- thank you! This really shows how easy it is to help lower the population of animals in our area.
