There are 2 sets of pricing for the Neuter Scooter: one for clients in areas covered by grants and one for all other areas of San Diego County. To find the correct fee:

1. Look for your zip code on the left side of the following table. If your zip code is not listed, move to the right side of the table.
2. Now, find your type of pet (cat, rabbit*, male/female dog) on the list. NOTE: Pit Bulls, Chows, and Rottweilers are $15 regardless of which zip code you reside in.

* As of February 1, 2008 SNAP will no longer alter rabbits on the Neuter Scooter. For information about low-cost spay/neuter services for rabbits, please check out Services: Other Low-Cost Spay/Neuter Resources.

** Pit Bulls, Chows, and Rottweilers are breeds that are grossly overrepresented in San Diego County animal shelters. Therefore, to encourage owners of these breeds especially to spay and neuter their pets, a special $15 pricing, regardless of zip code, is offered.

All pricing includes the following: Spay/Neuter surgery, nail trim, and a dose of Advantage flea preventative. For dogs, a rabies vaccine*** is also included. Dogs in the jurisdictions of San Diego County Animal Services, Chula Vista Animal Services, and North County Humane Society Animal Services receive a free one-year license. There is no additional charge for females "in heat," pregnancy, undescended testicles, overweight animals, etc.

Because male dogs are most prone to licking/chewing their incision sites, pricing for MALE DOGS ONLY includes an Elizabethan collar (also called an E-collar or "cone"). If owners of cats or female dogs choose to go home with an E-collar as a preventative measure, the collar may be purchased for an additional $5.

*** If the dog has already had his/her rabies vaccination and only needs a license, the owner must bring proof of rabies paperwork to registration on the day of surgery. This paperwork must include vaccine manufacturer, vaccine name, lot #, veterinarian's information, and date of vaccination.
