Tomorrow, Tuesday, February 25, 2025, is the final day to take advantage of free spaying and neutering for adopted pets at the Prince William County Animal Shelter.
To mark World Spay Day, the shelter has offered a special adoption event, covering the cost of standard spay and neuter procedures for all adoptions from February 21–25, 2025. This means there’s still one more day to bring home a furry friend while ensuring they receive essential veterinary care at no extra cost.
Young Lab mix Skinner, pictured above, reminds you that this opportunity won’t last forever. If you’ve been thinking about adopting, now is the perfect time. In addition to the pets included in the free spay/neuter event, the shelter also has many already-fixed animals just waiting for their forever homes.
So why wait? Head to the Prince William County Animal Services Bureau and find your new best friend today!

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
