The Tubb Project offers low-cost spay/neuter surgeries for dogs and cat for owners who cannot afford to have there pet spayed/neutered at a full service veterinary clinic. If this does not apply to you, please do not schedule an appointment as appointments are limited.
Scheduling & Contact Information
Please be patient during the appointment request process as we get many requests each day and can only perform a certain amount of surgeries each week. There may be a waiting period of up to 3-4 months for an appointment.
Pre-Surgery Care
If your pet has had any unusual symptoms 7 days prior to their surgery date, please let us know immediately! These symptoms include but are not limited to coughing, sneezing, diarrhea, eye drainage, fever, vomiting, limping, and nasal discharge.
If your animal has recently had puppies/kittens or is in heat, please let us know immediately. If your pet is pregnant, the pregnancy will be terminated. There will be an additional fee for this. See price list.

Please do not feed your animal anything after MIDNIGHT the night before surgery and nothing the morning of surgery. They can have water.

NO RUNNING, JUMPING, OR ROUGH PLAY AT ALL for 7-10 days after surgery.
Feed only regular food the night of surgery - no special foods or treats (can be given starting the day after surgery).
Check incision daily - look for redness, swelling, or draining. If you see any of these signs, call YOUR REGULAR VET.
The incision is held together with dissolvable sutures and medical glue and does NOT have to be taken out.
NO BATH for 7-10 days, no ointment on incision and do not cover incision with anything.
NO LICKING the incision AT ALL. An e-collar (especially for male dogs) is recommended and should be worn for 7-10 days after surgery.
All pets will have a green line near the incision, which is a tattoo for identifying that your pet has been spayed or neutered.
