Why We Recommend Spay and Neuter Surgeries

- Preventing unwanted litters
- Reducing animal overpopulation and shelter crowding
- Preventing the euthanizing of healthy shelter animals
- Helping to reduce the risk of life-threatening reproductive cancers (breast cancer, testicular cancer, etc.)
- Reducing hormonal behaviors including mounting, spraying, vocalizing, and roaming
- Improving your pet’s quality of life and potentially extending their lifespan
Our Safety Protocols
for Pet Surgery
Similar to a human surgical suite, ours is equipped with the best tools for performing surgeries safely and minimizing risk to your pet.
Pre-Anesthesia Preparation
Before surgery, our team performs a physical examination and blood work to evaluate your pet’s health. We need to make sure anesthesia poses minimal risk to them.
IV Catheter Placement
An IV catheter enables us to administer antibiotics, fluids, and medications to your pet as needed during surgery.
Monitoring of Vitals
During your pet’s procedure, our team will monitor their heart rate, temperature, respiration, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and more.
