Why Should I Spay and Neuter My Pets?

The most obvious reason that you should spay and neuter your pet is due to the fact that you do not want them to reproduce. Male dogs especially have a tendency to get loose and roam and can often end up impregnating a female dog in their travels. This can create litters of puppies that will not be able to be properly cared for. Spaying and neutering surgeries are considered a form of population control and it helps prevent this problem from escalating further.

Another benefit that you will gain from spaying and neutering your pets is that you will notice some positive behavioral changes in your pet. Your male dog will not show as much aggression and dominance issues and your female dog will not go into heat whenever she is ovulating. It is recommended that you get your pets spayed and neutered at a very young age to prevent bad behaviors from becoming set in stone later in their life.

Spaying and neutering surgeries are safe for your pet and they don’t negatively affect their personality. After a brief recovery time, they will be back to their regular playful self living a healthy life.
