Valley Animal Partners raises funds for its spay and neuter assistance program benefiting pets in the communities of North Bend, Snoqualmie, Fall City and Preston. To date, they have provided these services to more than 100 pets in local communities.

With the increasing cost of veterinary care, community growth and all the changes in King County’s animal services, this program is needed now more than ever, partners say.
