Results: Recognizing that spay and neuter is one of the most effective tools the animal welfare community has to combat homelessness and the needless euthanasia of dogs and cats, Spay Neuter Idaho Pets formed a voucher program that worked with the veterinary community to provide spay and neuter services at reduced rates for income-qualifying Idahoan’s. During that timespan, we issued over 25,000 spay or neuter vouchers to local pet owners that would not have been able to sterilize their pet otherwise, reducing overpopulation exponentially. As the need for our spay and neuter voucher program continued to grow with each passing year, it became clear that it was time to open our own facility.
Thanks to the combined efforts of individual, corporate and foundation supporters, our dream of opening the SNIP Clinic came to fruition in 2018. Since opening the SNIP Clinic, we have provided 38,252 spay or neuter procedures, administered 26,888 vaccinations, and implanted 5,280 microchips.
