Education Programs
BTS offers an education program that can be used to educate citizens on the important of the spay and neuter surgery and the overpopulation problem in our area. The education course is kid friendly and the content can be adjusted to suit all ages. During the course the following topics are discussed:
- The pet overpopulation problem in our area.
- The facts about number of animals entering the shelter, finding homes and euthanized in the past year.
- Math to show how quick dogs and cats can multiply.
- How they can help by spreading the spay and neuter message or raising funds to fix animals in our area.
- BTS and how we work to fix the problem from the start by education people about the importance and benefits of the spay and neuter surgery and our voucher program.
At the end of the presentation goody bags are handed out that include a BTS brochure to share with friends and family or someone in need of a vouchers, glow in the dark spay/neuter pet wristbands, and candy. Our students seem to really understand our important message by the end. We hope our students continue to spread our important message, so we can all work together to end the pet overpopulation problem.]

Facts
Pet overpopulation is a PROBLEM in our area! In fact, over 50% of the intakes to the Leon County Animal Services Center have to be euthanized each year.
How Can You Help?
Make sure your pet is spayed or neutered!
In the U.S., Millions of cats and dogs of all ages and breeds are euthanized annually or suffer as strays. These high numbers are the result of unwanted, unplanned litter that could have been prevented by spaying or neutering.

Why should you spay or neuter your pet?
- Your female pet won't go into heat, which means less mess for you to clean!
- Your male pet is less likely to roam, run away, get hit by cars or get into fights!
- Female pets have reduced risk of uterine, ovarian, and breast cancers.
- Male pets have reduced risk of prostate cancer and other disorders.
- Altered pets mean less chance of costly vet bills and increased chance of longer lives.
- Spay and neuter surgeries are safe, simple, and routine. Your pet can go home the same day.
- Your male will not feel like less of a male. Pets don't have any concept of sexual identity or ego. Neutering will not change a pet's basic personality. He doesn't suffer any kind of emotional reaction or identify crisis when neutered.
- Your dog will still be protective! Spaying/Neutering does not affect a dog's natural instinct to protect home and family.
