Free Day: Spay/Neuter (Travis County Residents Only) – Del Valle Softball Complex – Del Valle, TX

May 18 @ 6:00 am – 5:00 pm

TRAVIS COUNTY OR CITY OF AUSTIN RESIDENTS ONLY

Our Free Day veterinary services are only available to the City of Austin or Travis County residents. We will ask for your address to confirm you are a City of Austin or Travis Country resident. Funding for this program is provided by the City of Austin/Travis County Animal Services and private donations to Emancipet. Please note that these services are not available for rescue groups or shelters.

How It Works

  • MORNING OF SIGN-IN PROCESS: Surgery is provided on a first come, first served basis and is not guaranteed. Emancipet staff will arrive on site at approximately 6am, and ask clients to form a line and sign in at that time. Only Emancipet staff members will sign in clients and form a sign in list. Any sign in lists made by clients or volunteers will not be accepted. If we have room for your pet, it will be loaded on the Mobile clinic once it arrives at the clinic site.
  • LEASH/CARRIER: Your pet must be on a leash or in a secure carrier.
  • PET LIMIT: No more than three pets per person per visit.
  • FERAL CAT NOTICE: Unfortunately, we cannot service feral cats at our Free Day Mobile Clinic event. If you have a trapped feral that you would like to spay/neuter, please call Emancipet at 512-587-7729, follow the phone prompts to book a spay/neuter appointment, and one of our Resource Center Specialists can review options with you.
  • LARGE DOGS: We love our large dog patients, but due to their size and the limited number of large kennels on our mobile clinic, we tend to run out of large kennels quickly, and, in cases of extra-large dogs, our kennels may not be big enough to accommodate them for surgery safely. However, there is good news! If we are unable to intake your large dog for surgery, our Mobile team will give you a voucher that you can use to call and schedule a free spay/neuter surgery at one of our standing Austin clinics. We appreciate your understanding. 
  • FEEDING: Do not feed your pet breakfast the morning of surgery; all food should be withheld starting at midnight the night before. Water is allowed; do not withhold water from your pet.
  • PICK-UP:You will receive a text message with your pick-up time. Pick-up times are rarely later than 5pm.
  • COST: FREE for Travis County residents only
  • HOW TO SCHEDULE: Our Free Spay Neuter services are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, but you must be a Travis County resident. Services consist of a rabies vaccination performed at the time of your pet’s spay or neuter surgery. Emancipet’s Mobile Free Spay Neuter program is operated under contract with the City of Austin.
  • MAÑANA DEL PROCESO DE REGISTRO: La cirugía se brinda por orden de llegada y no está garantizada. El personal de Emancipet llegará al sitio aproximadamente a las 6 am y pedirá a los clientes que formen una fila y se registren en ese momento. Solo los miembros del personal de Emancipet registrarán a los clientes y formarán una lista de registro. No se aceptarán listas de inicio de sesión realizadas por clientes o voluntarios. Si tenemos espacio para su mascota, se cargará en la clínica móvil una vez que llegue al sitio de la clínica.
  • CORREA/PORTADOR: Su mascota debe estar con correa o en un transportador seguro.
  • LÍMITE DE MASCOTAS: No más de tres mascotas por persona por visita.
  • AVISO DE GATOS SALVAJES: Desafortunadamente, no podemos atender gatos salvajes en nuestro evento de Clínica Móvil de Día Gratis. Si tiene un salvaje atrapado al que le gustaría esterilizar/castrar, llame a Emancipet al 512-587-7729, siga las indicaciones telefónicas para programar una cita de esterilización/castración, y uno de nuestros especialistas del Centro de recursos puede revisar las opciones con usted.
  • PERROS GRANDES: Amamos a nuestros pacientes con perros grandes, pero debido a su tamaño y al número limitado de jaulas grandes en nuestra clínica móvil, tendemos a quedarnos sin jaulas grandes rápidamente y, en casos de perros extra grandes, nuestras jaulas pueden no ser lo suficientemente grande como para acomodarlos para la cirugía de forma segura. ¡Sin embargo, hay buenas noticias! Si no podemos admitir a su perro grande para la cirugía, nuestro equipo de Mobile le dará un cupón que puede usar para llamar y programar una cirugía de esterilización/castración gratuita en una de nuestras clínicas permanentes de Austin. apreciamos su comprensión.
  • ALIMENTACIÓN: No alimente a su mascota con el desayuno la mañana de la cirugía; todos los alimentos deben ser retenidos a partir de la medianoche de la noche anterior. El agua está permitida; no le niegues el agua a tu mascota.
  • RECOGIDA: Recibirás un mensaje de texto con tu hora de recogida. Los horarios de recogida rara vez son más tarde de las 5:00 p. m.
  • COSTO: GRATIS solo para residentes del condado de Travis
  • CÓMO PROGRAMAR: Nuestros servicios gratuitos de esterilización y castración se ofrecen por orden de llegada, pero debe ser residente del condado de Travis. Los servicios consisten en una vacunación contra la rabia realizada en el momento de la cirugía de esterilización o castración de su mascota. El programa Mobile Free Spay Neuter de Emancipet se opera bajo contrato con la ciudad de Austin.

We promise to always do our best to keep prices as low as possible and to keep price lists as up-to-date as possible. We ask for your understanding if and when it becomes necessary to change or increase prices. We also ask for your patience as it may occasionally take a few days or longer to update our materials so that they reflect our most current pricing.

Spay/Neuter Surgery

Our “Free-Day” spay and neuter surgeries do require an appointment. Please check out our pricing below, or our helpful FAQ guide if you have specific questions.

Who’s it for?

All female dogs and cats.

How to schedule?

Offered on a first-come, first-serve basis. The line typically starts forming around 6am for an 8am drop off. Please note there are limited spaces available!

What’s it do? Why should I do it?

Healthy dogs and cats can be spayed as young as 3 months, if they are over 3 pounds in body weight.

Spaying helps prevent uterine infections, breast tumors, and pregnancy. Spaying your pet before her first heat offers the best protection from these diseases, and can help your female pet live a longer, healthier life.

Please Note

Emancipet veterinarians are highly skilled clinicians and surgeons. However, we do want to make sure you’re well aware of any risk that applies to your pet. If your pet’s procedure is considered high risk, you will be asked to sign a form acknowledging the elevated risk. If you have any questions, please ask our clinic staff when you check your pet in for their appointment.

Who’s it for?

All male dogs and cats.

How to schedule?

Offered on a first-come, first-serve basis. The line typically starts forming around 6am for an 8am drop off. Please note there are limited spaces available!

What’s it do? Why should I do it?

Healthy dogs and cats can be neutered as young as 3 months, if they are over 3 pounds in body weight.

Neutering eliminates the possibility of testicular cancer and greatly reduces the chance of prostate disease, two extremely common and serious problems of older male dogs. Neutering can also reduce the risk of perianal tumors and perineal hernias. If a dog is neutered before it reaches puberty, some unwanted behaviors may be prevented such as urine marking, aggression and sexual behaviors. Most dogs reach puberty around 8 months of age.
