Six Hundred per year over Six years (2023-2028)

The HARTT Board of Directors initiated an ambitious goal at the June 2017 meeting to provide monetary assistance to provide Spay/Neuter for 500 "Owned" companion animals. The community met and exceeded this goal by having has fixed 2202 cats, 865 dogs which tallies to 3067 dogs /cats spayed/neutered in the five year period between 2018-02022.

In an effort to continue this program in June 2022 HARTT’s Board of Directors made a new Campaign of 600 over six. HARTT’s goal is to assist owners in fixing 600 dogs or cats over six years. This includes animals in our six-county, two-State area with a total population of 100,000 people.  HARTTs Low cost Spay or Neuter focuses on the following counties: Hardin, McNairy, Southern Chester, Southern Henderson and Decatur in Tennessee, and Tishimingo in Mississippi.  While it is an ambitious goal for our small rescue, we know we can assist owners through financial support from foundations and granting organizations with similar goals in mind. The increase in the number of spayed/neutered animals in our region made possible by our Low-Cost Spay/Neuter program in combination with other spay/neuter programs will slow down companion animal homelessness and overpopulation.
