🐾 Introducing the SNIP & TIP Program 🐾
A new community spay & neuter effort to tackle Guam’s overpopulation crisis

Results from the 2025 Dog Population Survey showed a hard truth:
Many residents lovingly feed dogs and cats around their homes but don’t consider them “theirs.” These community animals are often cared for by multiple households, go unsterilized, and are the largest contributors to unwanted litters on island.

To reach these animals, our SNIP clinic is launching the SNIP & TIP Program 💪🐶🐱

❓How it works:
Residents can schedule and bring in community dogs and cats for a full service package at no cost to them (donations encouraged).

🤔What’s included:
✔️ Spay or Neuter surgery
✔️ Ear tip or notch (to clearly mark they’ve been sterilized)
✔️ Microchip
✔️ DAPP (dogs) or HCP (cats) vaccine
✔️ Rabies vaccine (if 12 weeks or older)

💙 No donation is required, but donations help us continue this program longer without depleting limited funding.
Suggested donation: $50–$100 (any amount is appreciated).

🚨 IMPORTANT:
We currently have LOTS of open appointments at our upcoming Sinajana clinic between January 13-20th, this is the perfect time to sign up the community dogs and cats you’re already feeding.

👉 Sign them up NOW. Help stop the cycle. Help your community. Help Guam.

Biba!

🥰We are beyond grateful to our incredible team of volunteers who devoted their time and energy to the Department of Agriculture Animal Health Dog Population Survey in collaboration with Humane World for Animals

Your hard work and dedication were instrumental in completing this vital research, which will provide us with important insights into the animal situation on our island.

🚗We also want to extend a huge thank you to our transport sponsors, Triple J Auto Group and Hertz. You ensured that our team could travel across the island to conduct comprehensive street counts of stray dogs and cats.

🍽Additionally, our deepest gratitude goes to Subway and Lytguam for providing delicious meals to our volunteers during their two days of intensive training. Your kindness and generosity kept our team energized and ready to tackle the tasks at hand.

This initiative was truly a community effort, and it would not have been the success it was without the unwavering support of everyone involved. 🤝Thank you for standing by us and making a real difference in the lives of Guam's animals. Together, we are creating a better future for our furry friends!
