Spaying refers to the removal of the ovaries and uterus of a female pet. It’s a veterinary procedure that is commonly performed and offers lifelong health benefits. Spaying lowers a pet's risk of developing breast cancer, which is fatal in 90% of cats and in 50% of dogs. It also prevents life-threatening uterine infections. Neutering is the removal of the testicles in a male pet, which will markedly improve your male dog or cat’s behavior and keep him close to home. The risk of testicular disease is eliminated and prostate diseases are dramatically decreased. Your pet’s quality of life is improved with this simple surgery.

Your spayed or neutered pets are less likely to roam, therefore they are less likely to run away, become injured or end up lost. Spaying and neutering can also prevent fights between pets and between others. Fights can result in deep wounds, infection and injury to you or your pet. Neutered males tend to be less aggressive towards both animals and people, especially if neutered at an early age. Best of all, your beloved dog or cat’s life can be extended with this simple procedure. It is the best choice for their long term health and happiness.
