Most Thursdays I do the public spay and neuter run for the local non profit spay-neuter clinic. This means meeting the few folks at a park, collecting their dogs that have spay-neuter appointments with the clinic, driving them there, coming back after all is done and meeting up with their folks and returning everyone to where they belong. If I could do this 7 days a week I would be happy to do it because this is exactly what we all try to get people to do: spay and neuter their pets. When I say that these people couldn’t afford the normal spay-neuter cost at a vet clinic, I mean that if it wasn’t offered as a low cost deal, it wouldn’t get done. Not that the folks don’t care, they do. They just can’t afford to have it done. We all know that if every pet was fixed we would be out of the rescue business. Well that would be fine for most of us as it’s about saving lives, not just moving pets around.
