National Spay Alliance Foundation began in the spring of 2013 it was founded by Pam Pierce and a Colorado Veterinarian as Spay Today Mobile Outreach. Realizing the the need for low cost spay/neuter services in under served communities the program expanded from its Colorado roots. The gold standard for spay/neuter clinics developed by the Humane Alliance of North Carolina was utilized to design a high volume high quality program. To date we have worked in Colorado, Kansas, Georgia, New Mexico and New York with our mobile units. We began coming to Dalton, GA at the request of a local rescue organization in the Spring of 2013 with our mobile unit. At the close of each trip a waiting list still existed for services. We began coming more frequently until it was clear the need for services was immense. In March of 2015 we opened our spay/neuter/medical clinic here in Dalton, GA. We now offer services to the public as well as county facilities, rescue groups and humane societies. We do not exclude clients based on geographical or income restrictions. While our focus is on spay/neuter, we also offer low-cost basic services such as vaccinations, heartworm testing, preventatives and microchipping.
Veterinary care is an essential part of pet ownership, however the recent economic downturn has affected the care owners can afford to give their pets. This has resulted in an increase of pets either being euthanized or surrendered to animal shelters and rescues. Our mission is to end the tragedy of euthanasia due to pet over population and homelessness. We fulfill our mission by providing high-quality, affordable and accessible spay/neuter and basic medical services to communities where economic barriers may otherwise prevent pet owners and rescue groups for accessing those services.
The demand for our services is continually growing. To better serve our pets and people, National Spay Alliance Foundation applied for and received our non-profit status in February of 2015.

KANAB, Utah (September 16, 2013) – The majority of Americans significantly underestimate the number of dogs and cats killed in America’s shelters each day, a new national survey has revealed. The research, released by Best Friends Animal Society, the only national animal welfare organization focused exclusively on ending the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters, found that most people aren’t aware of the magnitude of the issue or how simple it is to save these pets.
In fact, the new research shows that nationally, 50 percent of Americans estimate that 500 or fewer cats and dogs die each day in shelters across the country – far fewer than the more than 9,000 that actually die in shelters each day because they don’t have a safe place to call home. Forty eight percent of those surveyed believe that shelter animals are eventually claimed by their owners, adopted or transferred to another rescue organization. In fact, for millions of animals that go to shelters, it is their last stop.
Spaying or neutering your pet is one way you can help save lives. By spaying or neutering fewer animals are born thus fewer enter shelters and fewer roam with no home.
