Pasco Animal Welfare Society
Did you know that we have a low-cost spay/neuter clinic in Pasco County? Yep! We sure do. The Pasco Animal Welfare Society (PAWS), located on Highway 19 just south of SR 52, offers spaying and neutering services for under $110 depending on the type of pet you have and the size. For instance, cats are spayed or neutered for $35. Dog spaying and neuter varies by size. You can view their price list on the their website. The link is to the left. They offer a variety of other services as well. If veterinary services seem out of the question for Fido or Felix, check out PAWS. You might be surprised at how affordable medical help can be for your pet, especially spay/neuter.
