FREE Sweetheart Black Dog Walk
Sunday February 14th and every second Sunday of the month, join black dogs and their people at Military Reserve Dog Park (750 Mountain Cove Road, Boise) at 1:00 for a stroll with your favorite four-legged friend in the foothills to bring awareness to the plight of black dogs in shelters, known as the Black Dog Syndrome, that affects black cats also.  Black dogs from local shelters and rescue groups will be available for adoption.  This free walk is sponsored by H3 Pet Foods, Camp Bow Wow, and Bandannas Running and Walking.

Change Their Luck Give a Buck

During the entire month of February, look for coin boxes by the registers in all Jackson's Food Stores.  The campaign is themed "Change Their Luck, Give a Buck," and rightly so, as 100% of funds will provide financial assistance to qualified low-income owners to spay/neuter their dogs and domestic and feral cats.  Spaying and neutering pets prevents unwanted litters and helps reduce the number of animals that cannot find homes and ultimately end up being killed in shelters.
 

Millions of healthy, adoptable cats and dogs are killed each year in the U.S. because they haven't found homes...

...we're working to change that.

Mission
To establish and maintain a low-cost spay and neuter clinic for animals of low income families and feral cats, collaborate with other animal welfare groups, and promote the humane treatment of animals to the community through educational programs.

Vision
To end the need to kill healthy, adoptable dogs and cats by reducing the number of them that enter animal shelters.

Our Approach
SNIP is actively fundraising to open a high-volume low-cost spay and neuter clinic for dogs and domestic and feral cats.

  • We provide public education about the importance of spaying and neutering and about humane care for  cats and dogs.
  • We educate the community about feral (community) cats, humane population control, and feral colony management. We also make traps available for TNR (trap/neuter/return).
  • We work with like-minded organizations to achieve our common goals of preventing unwanted litters, changing the fate of homeless animals, and promoting compassion towards all animals.
  • We consider all shelters and animal welfare groups our partners in finding a solution to animal overpopulation and homelessness.
