Spaying and Neutering

Your pet is your friend, a companion, and most of all, a member of a family. Unfortunately, not all pets are as loved and cherished as yours.  According to the American Humane Association, 5.17 million dogs and 4.18 million cats are taken into the animal shelter every year.  Out of that number, 2.9 million dogs and 3.01 cats will be euthanized. For each kitten or puppy like yours that find a happy home, four others are homeless. Don’t be a part of the problem...be a part of the solution! There are a lot of benefits of spaying or neutering your pets. Not only does it help reduced the number of unwanted pets, it also provides long term health benefits to your pet.

Common myths about altering your pet.
It will make my pet fat and lazy.
No, being overweight will make your pet fat and lazy.  This can be controlled by proper feeding and exercise.

It will change my pet's personality.

Not true, your pet's personality does not fully develop until 1-2 years of age.  If a change occurs after being altered, it would have happened anyway without the surgery.

My pet should have a litter first.
No, there is no advantage to having a litter before surgery.
