Bend Spay-Neuter Project receives grant
Bend Spay and Neuter Project has received a grant award in the amount of $5,300 to provide spay/neuter surgeries for 85 Pit Bulls and Chihuahuas living in Central Oregon at a cost of just $10 to their owner.
The “Chi Chi’s and Bullies Program” will help to decrease the number of unwanted dogs entering our local shelters and will enable low income dog owners to provide their beloved companions with the most basic of veterinary care.
Dog owners must be on some form of government assistance or be able to show proof of low income to qualify. Please call Bend Spay and Neuter Project for more information and to schedule an appointment at 541-617-1010.
Bend Spay and Neuter Project is a 501c3 registered non-profit in the state of Oregon. The mission of BSNP is to provide affordable, preventative veterinary care to at risk cats and dogs in Central Oregon in order to create a more humane community.
