VACCINATIONS AND OTHER SERVICES

Vaccinations and other services are offered at the time of surgery. View our Dog and
Cat owner handouts for more information about vaccines and services. Northwest Spay & Neuter Center does not provide full-service but we do offer follow-up veterinary care through our wellness clinic.
