SNIP is a volunteer managed initiative, and our shelter staff do not have the capacity to answer all the calls and questions. Should you still have questions, please email them to llbrhs.snip.coordinator@outlook.com

All applications received in the month of February will be reviewed at end of month and applicants contacted. Thank you for your patience. REMINDER: This program is entirely dependent on sponsors, so please help us by reaching out to anyone you know who might like to donate to the program!

Lac La Biche Regional Humane Society (LLBRHS) developed the SNIP program to offer affordable spay and neuter options and to help reduce the overpopulation of pets in our region. The program is 100% funded by sponsors, donations and applicant fees and is available to all Lac La Biche region residents.

Applications are reviewed by LLBRHS staff/board and processed on priority basis as funds are available. Applicants will be contacted to confirm application was received within 7 days of being submitted. Applicants will also be contacted to advise if application is approved or denied and next steps involved.
