Friends of BARC sponsors another Spay/Neuter event at BARC

We are pleased to announce another successful community Spay/Neuter event occurred at BARC on Sunday, June 7, 2026.

City of Houston residents were invited to pre-register their dogs and cats for sterilization surgery and a microchip for only $50 per animal.

Dr. Alana Canupp, an Empty the Shelter veterinarian from Florida, was on hand with her steady team of veterinary technicians to perform the surgeries, with the final tally of 67 dogs and cats.

Additional BARC staff and volunteer Ross Robinson kept the vet clinic running smoothly, and Friends of BARC provided a delicious breakfast and lunch to keep all those busy hands happy.

The next Spay/Neuter event with Dr. Canupp and her crew has already been planned for Sunday, November 15th for community dogs and cats. Registration will open within two weeks of that date.

We’re doing our part to help decrease the homeless pet population in Houston! Please help spread the word.

2nd BARC Spay/Neuter Event

Friends of BARC sponsored its second BARC Spay/Neuter event of 2025 on Sunday, September 14th.
Open to the general public, a total of 60 animals (38 cats, 22 dogs) were sterilized, a small yet important step towards curbing the overpopulation of Houston’s animal population.
Led by Dr. Grace Lee and a dedicated team of vet techs and volunteers, the event was seamless and all pet owners were happy to reunite with their beloved four-legged children at the end of the day. The $20 fee for each animal came with a microchip and city of Houston registration. FOB donated new Martingale collars and leashes to the dogs. In addition, FOB kept the staff fueled with a delicious lunch from Jersey Mike’s.
We look forward to the next spay/neuter event at BARC tentatively planned for November.
