The Atlanta Humane Society, as part of our ongoing effort to reduce the number of unwanted animals born in the state of Georgia each year, will provide low cost spay and neuter services for dogs and cats in its state-of-the-art mobile Surgical Utility Vehicle (SUV). The SUV program is an extension of our outreach initiative, designed to provide spay/neuter services for individuals who are unable to access our wellness hospital located here at the shelter.
How can I have a pet altered through the SUV program?
The SUV will be making rounds to various locations throughout Georgia over the course of the year and will provide low cost spay and neuter services. Scheduling is currently being conducted using the SUV voicemail system. To access this system, please leave a detailed message at 404.974.2885.
