Pet Wellness Tip: Spay and Neuter

Welcome back!

In addition to the importance of your pet’s annual wellness exam, one of our biggest recommendations is to consider spaying or neutering your pet.

Spaying and neutering act as a prevention of unwanted litters and prevent your pet from developing a range of other health conditions.

The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) advises spaying and neutering your pets for the prevention of gender-specific health conditions.

In females, it can reduce the risk of uterine infections and breast cancer. In males, it can reduce the risk of testicular cancer and enlarged prostate.

Spaying and neutering also have the benefit of addressing and preventing some behavioral conditions as well.
