Benefits of Pet Spay and Neuter Surgery
Our team recommends having your pet spayed or neutered around 5-6 months of age after they have completed their required puppy or kitten vaccinations. However, we will evaluate each pet individually to determine when their procedure should take place. Our professionally trained team prioritizes your pet’s health and safety above all. This procedure helps to provide a range of benefits, including:
Prevent Serious Health Problems
Having your pet spayed or neutered can help prevent mammary and uterine cancers as well as pyometra in females. It can also help to prevent prostate and testicular cancer in males.
Reduce Pet Overpopulation and Homelessness
Spaying or neutering your pet will help reduce the population of stray animals in our area. This helps relieve pressure on local animal shelters and rescues and prevents healthy animals from being euthanized due to lack of space or foster homes.
Eliminate Female Heat Cycles
Spaying your female dog or cat eliminates the heat cycle, which can prevent any discomfort they would feel.
Suppress Negative Male Behavior
Having your male dog or cat neutered at a young age can also help prevent aggressive or destructive behaviors and make for a more friendly pet.
