LAS VEGAS -- Clark County Animal Control officials want the animal population regulated, and they will be seeking a law to ensure pets are spayed and neutered.

At 6:30 p.m. Thursday, the Clark County Animal Control Advisory Board will hold a meeting at the Desert Breeze Community Center to discuss a mandatory spay and neuter bill.

If approved, all dogs and cats at 4 months old and older in Clark County would have to be fixed.

Officials modeled the bill after a spay and neuter bill passed by North Las Vegas.
