Community Spay & Neuter

Providing low-cost surgeries to local residents.

The Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe, the Town of Truckee Animal Services and participating vets have combined forces to provide a low cost Community Spay and Neuter Program. Through this program, local residents who require financial assistance can obtain low-cost spay or neuter surgeries for their dogs and cats at local veterinary clinics.

Why Spay or Neuter Your Pet?

Spayed or neutered dogs and cats help prevent unwanted puppies and kittens, which may become future homeless animals.

Also, spayed or neutered dogs and cats...

  • Make better companions.
  • Are less likely to roam.
  • Have reduced risk of illness.
  • Pet pregnancy, birthing, and raising litters can be expensive.

Please download the Spay and Neuter Application Form for more information, instructions and a list of participating veterinarians. If your pet is in heat or pregnant, the additional costs associated with the surgery will be the owner's responsibility. Please speak with your veterinarian about these fees and your options.

Since the program’s funds are limited, we ask that only pet owners who cannot afford the surgery without assistance use the voucher. This program is only available to permanent residents of the Town of Truckee, Eastern Placer County, Eastern Sierra County and Eastern Nevada County whose income level is at or below the median income level for your household size.

We wish to thank the Lahontan Community Foundation for helping us fund this valuable program.
