## Resource

Baark! is revolutionizing animal welfare in The Bahamas by shifting from reactive spay/neuter efforts to a proactive, community-focused strategy. After performing 40,000 surgeries, they’re now concentrating on one neighborhood at a time—starting with Nassau Village—to combine sterilization with education on responsible pet ownership. They’ll keep offering free and low-cost services while expanding outreach, using high-volume clinics supported by local vets. This smarter, targeted approach aims to tackle the root cause of pet overpopulation and build kinder communities for people and animals alike. Need help? Call 427-SPAY (7729). Next clinics: October 15–17 & 21–24, 2026. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
