Pets for Life NYC (PFLNYC), a program of the Humane Society of the United States, helps people resolve problems so they don't have to surrender their pets to the City's shelter. PFLNYC offers free and low-cost behavior training, reduced cost veterinary services for those who qualify, free or low-cost spay/neuter resources, foster homes and reduced-cost boarding for pets of people in crisis, landlord-tenant pet related assistance, allergy and shedding solutions, and general guidance and support for pet guardians.
