Health Benefits
Spaying and neutering can help reduce the risk of certain health issues, such as uterine infections and testicular cancer, in pets.
Behavioral Benefits
Neutering male pets can help reduce aggressive behavior and roaming tendencies while spaying female pets can eliminate heat cycles and reduce the risk of roaming and unwanted pregnancies.
Longer Lifespan
Studies have shown that spayed and neutered pets tend to live longer, healthier lives than their unaltered counterparts.
When to Consider Spaying or Neutering Your Pet
It’s essential to consider spaying or neutering your pet at the appropriate time to ensure their health and well-being. While the optimal age for spaying or neutering may vary depending on the species and breed of your pet, our veterinarians typically recommend the following guidelines:
- Dogs: Spaying or neutering is typically recommended between the ages of six months to one year for most dogs.
- Cats: Cats can be spayed or neutered as early as eight weeks of age, although our veterinarians may recommend waiting until they are at least four months old for optimal results.
