Spay & Neuter
Our hospital is well-equipped to perform spay or neuter services. Prior to any
surgery we require that each patient has been seen within the last 4 months so
that we can do a physical examination. Because not all problems can be detected
on examination, we also recommend pre-anesthetic blood testing. These tests not
only give us a more complete picture of your pet's health but also allow us to tailor
an anesthetic regime that is best for your pet.
We provide patients with gas anesthesia. We also have equipment that allows us
to monitor ECG, Blood Pressure, Heart Rate, Temperature, and Respiratory &
Oxygen Level.
All surgical patients are intubated and maintained under general anesthesia with
assistant can hear and see that the surgical patient is stable.
What is a spay?
Spaying refers to the surgical procedure performed on female dogs and cats to render them infertile.
There are many benefits to spaying your female pet. First, you will contribute to the heat cycles that attract male dogs or cats to
your house from miles away. Third, you will help prevent diseases in your pet such as pyometra (infection in the uterus) and
mammary cancer. Spaying involves surgical removal of both ovaries and the uterus.
What is a neuter?
Neutering refers to the surgical procedure performed on male dogs and cats to render them infertile.
There are many benefits to neutering your male companion. First, you will contribute to the prevention of the dog and cat over
population. Second, neutering will minimize undesirable and at times, embarrassing behavior in your male companion. Third, you
will help prevent diseases in your pet such as prostate disease and testicular cancer. Neutering involves surgical removal of both
testicles.
