Moore County Citizens’ Pet Responsibility Committee (PRC)

The PRC partners with the SNVC through two programs. As part of the PRC’s Pet Responsibility Program for fourth graders in Moore County, fourth graders can win a free spay or neuter for their pet or the pet of someone they know by writing a “Speuter Story” about the importance of spaying and neutering. The surgery is performed at the SNVC and underwritten by the Moore County Kennel Club. For information on the Speuter Story Contest, go to http://mcprc.org/kids-locker/speuter-contest/

The second program involves working with residents in the northern part of Moore County. They are advised and helped with the paperwork required for various programs that subsidize spaying and neutering. Transportation to and from the SNVC may also be provided. For more information, please visit their website at www.mcprc.org
