The Animal Foundation hopes to have more pets spayed and neutered with new lower prices for those procedures.

The shelter opened its low-cost spay and neuter clinic earlier this year after the city of Las Vegas passed an ordinance requiring animals to be altered. Now, it is lowering prices on those procedures

• Dog Spay (up to 25 pounds): $85 
• Dog Spay (26-50 pounds): $95
• Dog Spay (51-80 pounds): $99
• Dog Neuter (to 80 pounds): $60
• Cat Spay: $65
• Cat Neuter: $30

The shelter is offering even lower prices for pit bulls and Chihuahuas. Starting Thursday through December 31, male and female pit bull surgeries will be just $60. Male and female Chihuahuas can be altered for $30, although restrictions may apply. The shelter has more of those two breeds than any other and most of them are not spayed or neutered when they arrive.

In partnership with Benefit Wines, Golden Retriever Rescue Southern Nevada is introducing their new line of charity wines - GOLDEN RESCUE RESERVE - a lineup of six estate-grown imported wines.

These wines are imported from Lontue Valley, Chile and Catalunya, Spain. A significant portion of the purchase price is donated to Golden Retriever Rescue Southern Nevada in their continuing charitable efforts to provide veterinary care, food and temporary shelter for abandoned, mistreated, or unwanted golden retrievers and to locate people to provide permanent homes for these animals.

The community stepped forward to help The Animal Foundation with a shortage of sheets and blankets for the animals in the shelter.

The shelter announced it was running low on sheets, blankets and towels. People around southern Nevada quickly responded to the call donating all kinds of items. The shelves are now stocked with linens.

"Well at any given time we're taking care of about 1,000 animals, so these will last and we will rewash them as many times as we can until we can not use them anymore and hopefully the community keeps responding," said  Meghan Scheibe of The Animal Foundation.

The Animal Foundation takes in nearly 150 animals every day which means supplies are always stretched thin. If you would like to help you can drop donations at the shelter which is at Mojave Road and Bonanza Road. They also appreciate cash donations.
