Pet sterilization is highly recommended by the veterinarian staff of VHA.
Early sterilization of dogs and cats helps prevent uterine, mammary and testicular cancer. It can also help with common behavior problems such as feline spraying, canine marking and some aggression issues.
Spay/neuters are performed under general anesthesia and are quick, safe procedures. All surgical procedures include pre-anesthesia blood work to identify any areas of concern, complete vital monitoring while in surgery, and pain management aimed to make your pet as comfortable as possible.
