Discounts For Will County Pet Owners This February

All month long, Will County is offering residents discounts to have their pets spayed or neutered. The February special is available at participating veterinary offices, and residents can receive a $40 county-sponsored discount. The discount covers two pets per household and is only available for Will County residents.

Since the start of the program in 2007, more than 18,000 pets have received treatment.

“This continued partnership between our Animal Control department and the many veterinarians in Will County is the key to protecting the health of our residents’ pets,” said Will County Executive Larry Walsh. “This is an important service I encourage all eligible residents to utilize.”

The following restrictions apply to qualify for the $40 discount:

• Pet owners must show proof of Will County residency;
• Pets must reside with the owner and be registered with the Will County Animal Control;
• Pet owners must show proof of current rabies vaccination and Will County registration tag;
• Rabies vaccinations can also be provided and registration tags purchased on the day of the surgery;
• Surgeries must take place by the end of the month (Feb. 28).

Pet owners are encouraged to call their local veterinary office to confirm their participation in the program.

To learn more about the program, you can call (815) 724-1521.
