Spaying or neutering your own pets is the single
most important thing that everyone can do to help us end the use of euthanasia
as a means of population control for dogs and cats. Shelters in Maricopa County, Arizona alone destroy almost 60,000 dogs and cats
each year for lack of homes.
The second step you can take to help reduce the
number of dogs and cats that die each year is not to surrender your dog or cat
to a shelter. If you have behavioral
issues with your dog or cat there is help. The Arizona Animal Welfare League and the Arizona
Humane Society are two organizations listed here that can help. Don’t delay,
act now. It may save your pet’s life.
Third, spread the word about the importance of
spaying or neutering pets to family, friends, and co-workers. Let them know how
many dogs and cats are dying for lack of homes. Tell them about the low cost
spay/neuter options listed below. Keep
the Spay/Neuter Hotlines’ telephone number with you so that you can help
whenever the need arises – (602) 265-SPAY (7729).
Finally, if you find a “lost” dog or tame cat – the
first step you should take is to try to find the owner. Post signs, put an ad
in the newspaper, take the animal to a vet to be scanned for a microchip that
will tell you who the owner is and how to contact them. For more information on
what you can do to find the owner and to report a “found” pet visit
Pets911 or call them at 1-888-Pets911.
