UNSPSC 70121801: Pet breeding services

UNSPSC 70121801 Pet breeding services is a Commodity code that describes services state and local governments procure for animal care and shelter operations, though the recent solicitation record shows minimal activity directly aligned with breeding; instead, issuing bodies are soliciting boarding, kenneling, adoption support, veterinary care, and animal housing equipment for shelter and animal control facilities. The mix of recent opportunities spans animal impoundment services (City of Bend), animal boarding for police and human services (City of Phoenix), dog kenneling and adoption services (Yamhill County Sheriff's Office), spay and neuter surgical services (City of San Antonio), rescue partner programs (City of San Antonio), canine behavior management (Bergen County Animal Shelter), emergency veterinary care (City of San Antonio), comprehensive veterinary services (Collier County), shelter food supply (Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control), veterinary consulting (City of Wichita and City of Fort Worth Animal Care and Control), animal housing equipment (City of Fort Worth), and pet clinic supplies (Harris County Public Health Services Office and Hillsborough County). Issuing bodies include municipal animal control and shelter agencies, county commissioners and sheriff's offices, and city animal care services departments, with San Antonio, Wichita, and Fort Worth appearing as repeat buyers across multiple animal-services contracts during the review period.

Recent opportunities concentrate in Texas (San Antonio, Wichita, Fort Worth, Harris County), Florida (Hillsborough County, Pasco County, Collier County), and scattered single-jurisdiction activity in Oregon, Colorado, Georgia, New Jersey, and North Carolina. The City of San Antonio issued RFP 26-063 for emergency veterinary care services (proposals due August 17, 2026, with pre-submittal conference July 13, 2026), RFA 26-104 for rescue partner canine and feline rescue contracts ($200 per qualifying animal, applications due August 25, 2026), RFA 26-105 for spay and neuter contract veterinarians ($1,300 per shift plus travel stipend, applications due August 25, 2026), and RFA 26-106 for community vaccine and microchip clinics ($20 per qualifying animal, applications due August 25, 2026). The City of Phoenix issued RFQU270399 for animal boarding services (sealed offers due October 21, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., five-year firm term with no extensions, pre-offer conference September 29, 2026). The City of Wichita issued RFP 260121 for veterinary consulting services (sealed proposals due June 5, 2026, one-year term with four optional one-year renewals, Small & Emerging Business Enterprise set-aside at 10% evaluation weighting). The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITQ-26-00305 for cardboard pet carriers ($43,200 estimated value over two years, quotes due July 2, 2026). The record shows no recent opportunities explicitly designated as pet breeding services; the code appears to encompass animal-care facility operations and support services rather than breeding operations per se.
