Spay & Neuter

The Benefits of Spay and Neuter Services for Your Pet

At Rockdale Animal Hospital, we offer expert spay and neuter services designed not only to help control the pet population but also to support a healthier, happier life for your pet. These routine procedures come with several benefits, including reducing the risk of certain diseases, curbing behavioral issues, and preventing unwanted litters. Our compassionate and skilled veterinary team is committed to ensuring a safe and smooth process for your pet.

Spaying 

Spaying prevents female animals from becoming pregnant and helps protect them from serious health risks such as bacterial infections, reproductive tract diseases, and various cancers. It also plays a vital role in controlling the overpopulation of dogs and cats, keeping more animals out of shelters.

This procedure, which involves removing the ovaries and uterus, is performed under anesthesia. Our team follows strict safety protocols and continuously monitors your pet’s vital signs throughout the surgery to ensure her safety.

Neutering 

Neutering prevents male animals from reproducing and significantly reduces their risk of developing prostate and testicular cancer, along with sexually transmitted diseases. It also helps manage pet overpopulation, ensuring fewer animals end up in shelters.

During the neutering procedure, the testicles are removed under anesthesia, and our team closely monitors your pet’s vital signs to ensure a safe and successful surgery.
