Spay/Neuter surgery vouchers for large dogs offered by Cedar Creek Lake group




Large, unadoptable dogs overpopulate animal shelters, and they often wind up euthanized rather than adopted.

Friends of the Animals Low-Cost Spay and Neutering Clinic in Gun Barrel City recently received a grant to provide financial assistance for the neutering and spaying of male and female dogs wieighing more than 40 pounds.

A copay is requested from the owners but not required. To hold an appointment a $17 refundable deposit by cash, check or debit card is required to schedule surgery.

The grant is dedicated to large dogs because of the difficulty adopting them. They can have litters of up to 15 puppies as often as three times per year.

Surgery vouchers are available at The Family Resource Center in Gun Barrel City, 903-887-4711 and the Community Food Pantry in Tool, 903-432-3003.

A drivers' license, social security card and proof of income are required to obtain a voucher.

Friends of the Animals performs surgeries every Tuesday by appointment. Low-cost vacinations also are available.

For information, call 903-887-7387 or visit www.friendsoftheanimals.org.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 1)

EXCELLENT. Slightly stained; 75 degrees; 0.43 feet above pool. The hybrid striped bass and white bass have made a full recovery from the spawn and are now back in the main lake in droves and are on a feeding frenzy! Look for heavy bird activity throughout the lake on flats and near the Dam on edges of drop offs especially on cloudy and overcast days. The hybrids and white bass have started schooling in water from 4-14 feet at the dam and any wind blown shallow point or seawall. Late evening schooling action is also happening in shallow coves and points throughout the lake. Reports of great catches using silver or white slabs and spinners and retrieving off the bottom at a very slow retrieve to catch these fish in depths of 8-16 feet of water. The crappie have also migrated back into the main lake. Look for them under bridge pylons or under docks where the depths are between 3-10 feet. Guides have been reporting exceptionally nice catches on sunny warmer days. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Catfish are excellent the first couple hours of the day on retaining walls where the shad are spawning using fresh cut or whole shad on a bobber or with a light weight. The bite slows as the day progresses because the catfish are feeding heavily at first light. Later in the day target catfish on the first drop-offs in 5-15 feet of water. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
