ARF has opened its clinic’s doors owners of Pit Bulls & Pit mixes as well as Chihuahua and Chihuahua mixes. They are offering spay or neuter appointments for these breeds for only $25! This service is available to all Bay Area residents.
If your interested in this program there’s a few things you should know first! ARF is a non-profit made up of volunteers. With that being said they do the very best they can but they have a limit so it may take up to a week to get a call back from them. Appointments for this service fill up fast! So don’t be surprised if they schedule your appointment a few weeks out. Also pain medication ($3.25) and recovery cone collars ($10) are optional and are available for an extra fee. They are worth the wait and an offer an incredibly low price! You will not find it cheaper anywhere else.
