Spay/Neuter
What is Spaying & Neutering?
Spaying
is removing the ovaries and uterus of a female pet. It is a veterinary procedure that requires minimal hospitalization and offers lifelong health benefits.
Neutering
is removing the testicles of your male pet. It will vastly improve your pet’s behavior and keep him close to home.
NOTE: Tri-County Humane Society ensures all its dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, and rabbits are spayed/neutered before their adoptions; however, we are not licensed to spay/neuter the public's pets.

MnSNAP will start accepting appointments about four weeks out from the surgery dates. All questions should be directed toward MnSNAP; their team uses TCHS' property for the clinics, but TCHS doesn't have anything else directly to do with the clinics.
Keep checking back for 2026 MnSNAP clinics at TCHS! The first clinic of the year is scheduled for Sunday, April 19. The second clinic of the year is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, May 12.
