Grand Valley veterinary practices have joined with Mesa County Animal Services to offer spay or neuter procedures at a reduced price.

The Animal Assistance Foundation has provided funding for pet sterilization procedures. Participating veterinary practices have agreed to offer those procedures at a reduced rate, resulting in a fee of $25 to pet owners.

Participating practices have been issued a limited number of vouchers for 2022. Vouchers are offered at the discretion of veterinarians and are valid through Sept. 30. Pet owners could be asked to support they have financial needs or communicate why they face unique circumstances to receive vouchers.

Pet owners are required to provide proof of rabies vaccinations for their pets to use the vouchers. The cost of vaccinations isn’t covered by the vouchers.

The participating veterinary practices are: All Pets Center, Animal Birth Control, Arrowhead Veterinary Hospital, CLAWS (cats only), Cottonwood Veterinary Hospital, Footprints Animal Hospital, Grand View Animal Hospital, Monument View Veterinary Hospital, Orchard Mesa Veterinary Hospital, Redlands Pet Clinic and VCA Tiara Rado Animal Hospital.
