Why Spaying and Neutering Matter
Spaying (removing the ovaries and uterus of a female pet) and neutering (removing the testicles of a male pet) are surgical procedures that do more than prevent reproduction—they actively contribute to your pet’s longevity and quality of life. These procedures help reduce the risk of serious health conditions, curb problematic behaviours, and ease the burden on local animal shelters.
When performed early in a pet’s life, spaying and neutering can prevent:
- Reproductive cancers such as uterine, ovarian, and testicular cancer
- Infections and diseases like pyometra (a potentially fatal uterine infection in females)
- Hormone-driven behaviours including roaming, aggression, humping, and spraying
In addition to health benefits, these procedures help address the ongoing challenge of pet overpopulation by reducing the number of unplanned litters and abandoned animals in shelters.
What to Expect During Surgery
Your pet’s safety is our top priority. Our veterinarian, who also owns and operates our clinic, brings trusted expertise to every procedure, ensuring individualized care and attentive monitoring before, during, and after surgery.
Our spay and neuter process includes:
- A pre-surgical exam to ensure your pet is healthy and ready for anesthesia
- Safe anesthesia protocols tailored to your pet’s age, size, and health status
- Continuous vital monitoring using modern equipment throughout the procedure
- Sterile surgical environment and techniques to reduce infection risk
- Pain management and recovery support, so your pet stays comfortable at every step
We also provide clear, personalized instructions for at-home post-operative care and are always available if you have questions or concerns after your pet’s procedure.
