Spay & Neuter

At Nimbus Pet Hospital, we consider each dog/cat individually to determine the best plan as to when/if we should spay or neuter your pet. Some documented health benefits of spaying and neutering include the following:

  1. Health benefits: Spaying or neutering your dog can reduce the risk of certain health problems, such as reproductive cancers and infections. It can also eliminate the risk of certain health issues altogether, such as uterine infections and testicular cancer.

  2. Behavioral benefits: Spaying or neutering can reduce or eliminate unwanted behaviors, such as aggression, marking, and roaming. It can also help to curb certain destructive behaviors, such as chewing and digging.

  3. Population control: Spaying or neutering your dog helps to prevent unwanted litters, which can contribute to the overpopulation of dogs in shelters and on the streets. By spaying or neutering your dog, you are helping to reduce the number of dogs that are euthanized each year due to overcrowding in shelters.

    Our team provides compassionate, skilled surgical care in a safe, AAHA-accredited environment. We monitor your pet closely before, during, and after surgery to ensure their comfort and safety every step of the way.

    If you have questions about whether spaying or neutering is right for your pet—or the best age to schedule the procedure—reach out to us. We're here to support you in making the best choice for your furry family member’s long-term health and happiness.
