Did you know that spaying or neutering your pet isn't just about population control? Some additional benefits are:
Spayed female:
- Prevents uterine infections, which are deadly without surgical intervention
- Prevents mammary tumors, which are cancerous in 50% of dogs and 90% of cats
- Eliminates heat cycles
Neutered males:
- Prevents prostate problems
- Prevents testicular cancer
- Reduces or eliminates roaming and marking
In addition to health benefits, population control is a must. Millions of dogs and cats are euthanized in shelters annually. A general population fact is: When two dogs or cats mate and their offspring are not spayed or neutered they can produce:
- 67,000 dogs in 6 years
- 420,000 cats in 7 years
These are all reasons why we recommend spaying and neutering and offer discounts. During the month of October pets of any age will receive 10% off these important procedures!
