LAKEPORT, Calif. – On Sunday, June 1, Lake County's animal advocates worked together to provide the community with an additional option for neutering of the community pets.
The training in the new drug, Zeuteirn – for chemical castration of young dogs – was hosted by Wasson Memorial Animal Hospital in Lakeport.
Veterinarians from Wasson Memorial, Lake County Animal Care and Control, and the SPCA of Clear Lake all learned how to provide the service.
Lake County Animal Services provided support by paying for the cost of the drugs used that day, delivering lunch and by transporting dogs that received the services.
Organizers said it is exciting that these advocates for animals are all working together to provide better services and improve the lives of the animals in Lake County.
The group offered special thanks to Wasson Memorial for providing the space, the vets – especially the two shelter vets – who attended the training, and everyone who make this training possible.
According to the organizers, the community's animals will all benefit because these vets came together to learn this new procedure.
Award winning journalism on the shores of Clear Lake.
