Call 423-921-4519 for PROMPT SPAY/NEUTER access and assistance.
The mission of Beat the Heat Alliance is to reduce the number of homeless dogs and cats by providing prompt spay/neuter access, assistance and education in the northeast Tennessee region.
We take calls to schedule for spay/neuter 9 to 5 Tuesday and Thursday. Call us! 423-921-4519!
Our focus counties are Cocke, Hawkins, Hancock, Grainger, Hamblen, and Jefferson in northeast TN. If you are in an adjacent county, please call us. We may be able to direct you to a similar program in your county and work with you to get the help you need. Hawkins County residents are being served by the Dog and Cat Depot in Rogersville and Young Williams Spay/Neuter Transports to Knoxville.
We appreciate when you can pay the full amount of the low cost surgeries offered by our partners, The Spay/Neuter Clinic at the Young-Williams Animal Village in Knoxville and Dog and Cat Depot in Rogersville. But if you cannot, please let us know at 423-921-4519 and see if we can help you with our current grant subsidies.

Volunteers Needed!
We are very happy with the number of cats and dogs we have helped to be spayed or neutered so far. But we are not satisfied. Our organization’s vision is no more homeless animals in northeast Tennessee. There are many people who share that vision and that is what has made the surgeries performed so far possible. However, to make the vision of no more homeless dogs and cats a reality, we have to spay and neuter many more dogs and cats. To accomplish that goal we need even more of us who can look to the future and say “Yes, we need to do that. We can do that. More importantly, we want to help do that!”
We need help in the form of volunteers. Every one of us has a skill, ability or talent that we can use to turn this vision into a reality (and never underestimate it or its value to us). The spays and neuters are low cost but not free. In addition there are various expenses involved with bringing this non-profit service to our area. We are working on grants and fundraisers, but donations have been critical to our work. So please call us at ICE-921-4519 and join us in this life-saving mission of no more homeless animals.
