The municipal government's Mobile Veterinary Unit continues its route in May, so that more Vallarta residents can take advantage of the free sterilization services for dogs and cats. These services aim to prevent abandonment, promote responsible pet ownership, and prevent animal overpopulation.
The Director of Animal Welfare announced the schedule of sterilization clinics in different neighborhoods of the municipality, bringing this service closer to various areas of Puerto Vallarta. She added that a postcard with the exact location, services, and all the necessary information about the neighborhood where the clinic will be held will be published each week.
The spay/neuter clinics will be held at the following locations:

Regarding the recommendations for sterilization, owners are asked to arrive before 8:00 a.m., bring dogs and cats at least 4 months old, avoiding pregnant or in-heat females, and ensure they have fasted for at least 8 hours without food or water. Dogs must be on a leash and cats must be in a carrier or other secure container. Pets must be clinically healthy and clean.
