By: Long Island Pet Professionals, LLC With 8 million homeless pets entering U.S. shelters every year, Kent Animal Shelter is helping to solve this problem by participating in PetSmart Charities®’ “Primp Your Pit ” August spay/neuter campaign. This year, PetSmart Charities is providing more than $394,000 in funding so that 49 animal welfare organizations in 24 states can perform 6,248 surgeries on pit bull terriers during the month of August. Locally, Kent Animal Shelter plans to spay and neuter 140 pit bull terriers and pit bull terrier mixes, (up from the 120 they did last year), for the special $20 rate, which includes a free nail trim. This special rate during the “Primp Your Pit” event applies to all residents of Long Island, N.Y. “Spaying/ For pet parents who may be hesitant to get their young puppies sterilized, it’s important to note that the American Veterinary Medical Association endorses spaying and neutering puppies as young as eight to 10 weeks old. Research shows that the procedure may improve the behavior and health of the pet, including reducing the risk of certain reproductive cancers and infections. Pit bull parents who wish to take advantage of this special offer must mention the “Primp Your Pit” promotion when they schedule their appointments. The promotion is based on availability.
