Gore Vet Partnership
Making a difference in Southland
Volunteer with usWe are excited to offer SPCA services in Gore in conjunction with VetSouth.
This Vet partnership means animals in Gore can receive SPCA services such as microchipping and desexing, and VetSouth in Gore is also able to take in any animals and transfer them to Invercargill for rehoming, or for further medical care if required. This way, the animals can receive the best care
Please also take a look at the animals for adoption at our Invercargill and Dunedin centres.
