Our Clinic
What is a spay/neuter?
A spay surgery is the surgical sterilization procedure for female animals and neuter surgery is the surgical sterilization procedure for male animals.
Animals who have been surgically sterilized, sometimes known as “fixed”, will not be able to reproduce, which in turn will help control the animal population.
Routine spay & neuter clinic days are offered on select days each month and schedules may vary.
Spay & neuter services are done by appointment with the exception of feral cats.
All animals must be in good health and will be checked by the attending veterinarian before accepting them into surgery. No animals over the age of 7 will be accepted.
Please note that we do not accept snub-nosed breeds as they often require more specialized care while under anesthesia.

Additional surgical procedures at time of spay or neuter:
Vaccines
-
Rabies $10
Rabies vaccines are mandatory per Arkansas state law and must be administered by a state licensed veterinarian. All animals will be vaccinated for rabies at time of surgery if 16 weeks of age or greater unless proof of current rabies vaccine is provided prior to or at time of check in for surgery. Good Shepherd staff will not call your private veterinarian to verify this. It is your responsibility to bring us a copy of the rabies certificate. A rabies tag alone will not be accepted as verification as it does not give the information regarding the specific animal.
