The Beesley Animal Foundation operates five programs to support pets and pet owners throughout Middle Tennessee.

Beesley Animal Clinic- Spay/Neuter surgeries, vaccinations, preventatives, and wellness visits for cats and dogs throughout Middle Tennessee. Making spaying and neutering a priority is essential while maintaining healthy pets! Since the opening of our clinic in May 1992, we have performed over 79,000 Spay/Neuter surgeries.
Education - BAF strives to educate the community about responsible pet care, including how spay/neuter and pet wellness are necessary to make sure pets remain healthy. Promoting "Kindness, Respect, Responsibility" through the distribution of Kind News to 172 classrooms in 2025-2026 is the biggest part of our education program.
Assist Financially - BAF offers financial assistance to those underserved, including low-income individuals, senior citizens, and those facing homelessness. Qualified individuals receive assistance for the spaying/neutering of their cat or dog and other services as available.
Community Outreach - Through this program BAF partners with various organizations in Rutherford and Cannon counties to distribute cat and dog food with their human feeding programs. Outreach focuses on senior centers and organizations providing assistance and guidance to the unhoused, underserved, and seniors with pets. Over 55,000 pounds of pet food have been distributed since August 2016!
Oliver Pet Assistance Fund- created by Beesley Animal Foundation (BAF) to provide financial assistance grants to family-owned pets in Rutherford and Cannon Counties needing urgent (non-emergency) veterinary care. 24 pets have received treatment since March 2023!

Beesley does not restrict services based on geography. We believe all pet owners deserve access to affordable care, regardless of where they live!
