Benefits of Neutering Your Dog
Neutering is a surgical procedure performed under general anaesthetic to remove part or all of your pet's reproductive organs, preventing them from reproducing. In males, it is called castration and in females, spaying.
- Can help prevent testicular cancer and prostate disease
- Assists in preventing roaming and aggressive behaviour
- Most owners neuter their pets! 86% of owned cats and 71% of owned dogs in the UK are neutered
If in doubt do not hesitate to give us a call! The health and well-being of your pet are our priority.
Why Should I Neuter My Dog?
Neutering has many benefits that can improve your pet’s quality of life. These benefits should be discussed with your vet to make sure neutering is a suitable option for your pet:
Females:-
- Removes the risk of an unplanned pregnancy.
- Bitches left unneutered can develop reproductive problems (eg breast cancer or pyometra – infection of the womb) which can be prevented with early neutering.
- Reduces the chances of her developing breast (mammary) cancer.
Males:-
- For males, castration significantly reduces the risk of developing the prostate disease, along with many other health benefits that can be discussed with your vet.
- Decreases the possibility of tumours and hernias around the bottom, which are common in older, un-neutered pets.
- Both castrated and entire males can make excellent pets, however, dogs that show signs of aggression should be considered for castration although this will not guarantee the correction of the behavioural problem.
