PAWED MOBILE SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC UPDATE:  December 2009

The PAWED mobile spay/neuter clinic continues to operate at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter to alter animals from the county shelters in Placerville and South Lake Tahoe.  Spay/neuter clinics are held every Tuesday, and we average about 35 operations each day.  In the first year, between January 27, 2009, when we began surgeries of the shelter animals, and December 31, 2009, 343 dogs/puppies, 515 cats/kittens and 26 rabbits have been altered in the clinic—a total of 884 animals!

Dr. Shirley Harman continues to do an excellent job of performing the spays/neuters, with the expert assistance of RVTs Sue Vargas and Tonya Ruffner.  Shelter staff Danielle, Sara and Brittany continue their careful handling of animals to and from the clinic, supervising the recovery of animals, cleaning instruments and the clinic and doing laundry after surgery days.  Several improvements have been made inside the clinic to respond to the needs of the clinic staff and animals.

Our plans to offer low cost spay/neuter services for the public have been delayed as we continue to search for appropriate locations with the required power outlet (50 amps) and sufficient space for recovery of larger animals.  If anyone can assist with this, please contact us!
