Why Spay/Neuter?

  • Spaying and neutering are safe, simple surgeries that stop animals from reproducing.  Females are spayed; males are neutered.

  • Kittens and puppies weighing as little as two pounds can be spayed and neutered.  Check with your veterinarian.

  • One unneutered male can impregnate dozens of females.  Therefore, it’s just as important to neuter males as it is to spay females-even if you keep your pet confined or on a leash.  Accidents happen when you least expect them!

  • Spaying and neutering reduces or eliminates the risk of certain types of cancer that can kill your pet and are expensive to treat.

  • Spaying and neutering may eliminate undesirable behaviors such as fighting, spraying and roaming.  This helps prevent injury to your pet and veterinary expenses.

  • Dogs don’t become less protective of their guardians or homes after being spayed or neutered.

  • Neutering doesn’t make your less “masculine.”  On the contrary, it protects against male feminizing syndrome by preventing estrogen-secreting testicular tumors.

  • Spaying and neutering are not unnatural, but humane and life-affirming means of ending the euthanasia of healthy, adoptable pets.

  • Spaying or neutering is as vital to your pet’s overall well-being as routine physical examinations, good nutrition, grooming, playtime and love!

  • Spaying and neutering are affordable.  If you need financial assistance to pay for spay/neuter services, there are programs to help you.

 

 

Please spay and neuter your pets!

 

Look before you leap, a pet is for KEEPS!
