All About Animals Rescue and the HYPE Recreation Center are Partnering For Free Spay Day

DEARBORN HEIGHTS, MI -- On Friday, April 5, 2013, All About Animals Rescue and the HYPE Recreation Center are partnering for a FREE Spay Day. A fixed pet is a healthier, happier pet!

All About Animals Rescue has been taking appointments for the last  month. Licensed veterinarians will be in a state-of-the-art mobile surgery van. If needed, rabies and distempered vaccines, and a dewormer for roundworms and hookworms are included with the spray/neuter. Owners are asked to bring their pet’s latest vaccine history.  This will help the veterinarian how to best serve the pet.

We want to thank Cheryl Phillips, a volunteer who is employed by Masco Corporation, and Justin Cessante, Director of Community Relations, HYPE Recreation Center for bringing this partnership to life.
