Fantastic organization if you are looking for a forever dog, and if you are looking to help support their work or need your pet fixed!
Hooves & Paws Animal Rescue is proud to announce a free community spay and neuter clinic in partnership with Mobile Vet Solutions. The event will take place on December 12, 2025, at the Louisa County Agricultural Grounds (208 Fredericksburg Ave, Louisa, VA 23093). The rescue is fully sponsoring 40 surgeries for cats and dogs from Louisa County and surrounding counties. Each pet will receive spay/neuter surgery, a rabies vaccine, a sterilization tattoo, and e-collar for dogs if needed—all at no cost to owners.
*The Issue of Animal Overpopulation*
Every year, millions of animals enter shelters across the United States. In Virginia alone, tens of thousands of cats and dogs are surrendered annually, and many face euthanasia due to lack of space and resources. Louisa County is no exception, with overcrowded shelters struggling to keep up with the demand. Spaying and neutering pets is the most effective way to address this issue, preventing unwanted litters and keeping animals from entering shelters in the first place.
*Working Together for the Community*
This clinic is a collaborative effort between Hooves & Paws Animal Rescue, Mobile Vet Solutions, Louisa CART and Louisa County Animal Control. Together, they have identified pets from families most in need—those facing financial hardships or struggling with accidental litters. By targeting these cases, the clinic ensures its impact reaches the animals and families who need it most. The last clinic was held on September 25, 2025 and successfully spayed and neutered 38 pets from members of the community who needed assistance.
*About Hooves & Paws Animal Rescue*
