On this episode of United We Spay, learn how spay-neuter services are transforming animal welfare and reducing shelter overpopulation with our expert panel.

Hear from Peter Marsh, who provides historical insights into effective sterilization laws from California and New Hampshire, and learn from Dr. Jeffrey Young and Dr. Phil Bushby about their extensive experience in spay-neuter programs and veterinary training. Learn the importance of spaying and neutering animals before adoption and how these initiatives are essential in preventing an influx of homeless animals in shelters.

We also emphasize the need for veterinary students to master spay-neuter procedures before five months of age, ensuring they are equipped with the best surgical skills upon graduation. Innovative training programs in Colorado and other areas are highlighted for their hands-on approach and high-quality techniques, moving beyond traditional methods.
