Hebron Animal Hospital strives to promote and encourage responsible pet ownership. In some circumstances, people are put in situations where they rescue a pet, without necessarily having the financial means of taking the complete care necessary. In order to promote responsible pet ownership as well as to control the stray animal population, Hebron Animal Hospital is participating in the Kentucky Department of Agriculture Spay/Neuter Voucher Program.

To participate in this program, you MUST have an annual income of $30,000 or less and apply for a voucher from the Department’s Web site, www.kyagr.com or you can call them at 1-888-297-9093. Applicants are required to provide proof of low income to the KDA.

The participant will be responsible for a $20.00 co-pay per procedure and must be redeemed no later than 60 days after the date they are issued.

Each approved household will be eligible for up to two vouchers. Pets to be spayed or neutered must be 6 months old or older.

The voucher program is funded primarily with proceeds from the sale of spay and neuter license plates. The plates are available for an initial fee of $25.00 and an annual renewal fee of $20.00. Vehicle owners can get the spay/neuter plate by applying at their county clerk’s office.

Previous rounds of funding for vouchers were exhausted in a few weeks so please be sure to take advantage of this offer as quickly as possible.
