The Canine Country Jamboree--benefiting Northern Virginia Spay/Neuter Alliance & Clinic is country fair for the furred, finned, and feathered.
Northern Virginia Spay/Neuter Alliance & Clinic (NoVA-SNAC) is dedicated to ending pet overpopulation by working with local animal welfare advocates, companion animal businesses, and animal rescue organizations to invest in the creation of a regional high-volume, low-cost spay/neuter clinic which will serve animal shelters, rescue organizations and low-income pet owners.
NoVA-SNAC promotes a nationwide network of targeted, aggressive, high-volume, high-quality, low-cost strategically-placed sterilization clinics as the best defense against all sources of companion animal overpopulation. A single regional high volume clinic can sterilize thousands of animals each year and greatly minimize regional shelter intake.
Lauren Shifflett, co-owner of The Leesburg Canine Country Club, actively supports NoVA-SNAC’s mission, “We do not need to accept pet overpopulation as inevitable. If we invest our resources in sterilization, we will dramatically decrease the numbers of unwanted animals being born, thereby freeing up existing resources-both available pet homes and money—for those unwanted animals which are born. The Humane Alliance Spay/Neuter Clinic in Asheville, North Carolina sterilizes more than 22,000 animals each year and has reduced local shelter intake by over 70 percent. Investment in widespread sterilization programs is the best answer. We can end pet overpopulation forever.”
