What is Spaying and Neutering?

Spaying and neutering are surgeries to prevent pets from reproducing. Spay services are also known as ovariohysterectomies, and involve the removal of a female pet’s ovaries and uterus.

Neuter services, or castration, involve the removal of a male pet’s testicles. These procedures are routine, safe, and effective ways to control the pet population and improve your pet’s overall health.

Why is Spaying and Neutering So Important?

Spaying and neutering are important because they offer several health, behavioral, and community benefits.

Health Benefits

  • Reduced Risk of Certain Cancers: Spay services eliminate the risk of ovarian and uterine cancers in females, while neuter services reduce the risk of testicular cancer in males.
  • Prevention of Uterine Infections: Spaying prevents life-threatening uterine infections (pyometra) in female pets.
  • Reduced Risk of Prostate Problems: Neutering reduces the risk of prostate issues and related complications in male pets.

Behavioral Benefits

  • Decreased Aggression: Neutering can help reduce aggressive behaviors in male pets, making them more docile and easier to manage.
  • Reduced Marking and Roaming: Spayed and neutered pets are less likely to mark their territory or roam in search of a mate, which can reduce the risk of accidents and injuries.

Community Benefits

  • Reduced Overpopulation: Spaying and neutering help control the pet population, which reduces the number of stray and unhoused animals in shelters.
  • Decreased Risk of Animal-Related Incidents: By preventing unwanted litters, these procedures help reduce the occurrence of animal-related incidents by decreasing the number of stray animals in your community.

What’s the Best Age to Spay or Neuter Your Pet?

The ideal age to spay or neuter your pet varies based on their species, breed, size, and overall health. Generally, it’s recommended to book spay or neuter services between four months and one year of age.

However, larger breed dogs may be able to wait a bit longer. To determine the best time for your pet’s surgery, consult with our experienced veterinarians today.

What Do Pet Parents Say About Our Surgical Procedures?

“We called Dr. Tom on Monday, he performed the surgery on Tuesday removing the mass in his mouth and returned our happy dog with a great start to full recovery. Dr. Tom and his team made my prayers a reality this week. I know all journeys don’t end with a happy ending like ours. However, through this process I’ve realized that it’s extremely important to have the right Vet and team on your side that provides compassion and understands not only your pets needs but your own struggles. I can’t say enough great things about Newport Mesa Animal Hospital and Raji’s Champion, Dr. Tom.” – Zoila P.

“Dr. Irwin and Dr. Aldridge are both great at what they do and they provide a very friendly personal and professional experience every time I have to visit. Thanks for all the good care and work. My dog needed ACL surgery and the Newport-Mesa team took great care of him, they spent a lot of time with him and I to go over options, and procedures, and make sure that his surgery went as planned and he recovered great. I would recommend this team to any of my friends and family. Thanks!” – Sawyer J.

“Can’t say enough for this vet. I have been going here for almost 20 years. They have taken care of my dogs and cats. They do not recommend surgery every time your dog gets sick. In fact any surgeries have been minor. Things have changed over the years but not the service or their philosophy. I totally recommend this establishment for any one who loves their pet.” – Patty D.
