Spay and Neuter Services at Elm Grove Animal Hospital
At Elm Grove Animal Hospital, we believe that responsible pet ownership begins with spaying and neutering. Not only does it help control the pet population, but it also has many health benefits for your furry friend. We understand that it can be a difficult decision to make, which is why we want to provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision.
What are Spaying and Neutering?
Spaying is the surgical removal of a female animal’s ovaries and uterus, while neutering is the removal of a male animal’s testicles. Both procedures are performed under general anesthesia, and your pet will be able to go home the same day.
Why Should You Spay or Neuter Your Pet?
Spaying and neutering have many benefits for your pet and the community. It can help prevent unwanted litters, reduce the risk of certain types of cancer, and eliminate the urge to roam, which can prevent accidents and injuries.
In addition, spaying and neutering can also help reduce behavioral problems such as aggression and territorial marking, making your pet a happier and more well-behaved member of your family.
