Spay Services

If you have a female pet, you may want to consider having her spayed.  Having a pet that is capable of birthing may sound fine, until you have more pets than you can deal with.  Sadly, many animals are euthanized at shelters each year because there are not always enough willing adopters. You may not plan on letting your pet become pregnant, but all it takes is one accidental encounter.  If you have an outdoor pet, the chances of this occurrence increases. 

Neuter Services

If you have a male pet, it is recommended that you have him neutered. Neutering your pet not only benefits the burden of pet overpopulation, but has a direct effect on your pet as well. In the long run, it is worth having your pet neutered.


When it comes down to the bottom line, it benefits everyone as you will save money in not having to care for extra unwanted animals.

Benefits of Having your Pet Spayed and Neutered

Spaying and neutering offers many medical and behavioral benefits. Whether you are doing it for the greater good or for the good of your pet, spaying your female pet or neutering your male pet has many advantages. For cats, it is recommended that they are spayed or neutered by 5 months of age. For dogs, small-breeds should be spayed before they go into heat (5-6 months or neutered by 6 months. Larger dogs should be neutered when they finish growing (9 to 15 months) and spayed between 5 to 15 months. Here are some benefits of spaying/neutering your pets:


  • Spaying prevents constant pacing and nervous crying of female cats.
  • Spaying a female dog eliminates the messiness and burden of having to deal with the heat cycle.
  • Neutering of male cats and dogs can prevent unwanted behaviors. Behaviors include: unwanted sexual behaviors, urine-marking, humping, and aggression.
  • Spaying and neutering can also prevent testicular cancer in males, and uterine cancer in females.
  • Prevention of overpopulation which could lead to awful living conditions for the next generation of offspring. With an overpopulation of dogs, cats, and other animals who do not have happy, caring homes, spaying and neutering limits the chances of adding to the overpopulation number.
  • Spaying and neutering can increase the average lifespan of your pet
