Prevention first
Spaying and neutering are essential procedures for preventing unwanted pregnancies and promoting long-term pet health. While spaying and neutering are elective procedures, we recommend that all pet owners strongly consider them to reduce the risks of reproductive cancers and undesirable hormone-driven behaviors. The timing for a spay or neuter procedure depends on your pet's gender, species, age, and expected adult size—ask our veterinary team for details.
