Spay and Neuter

Be a loving and responsible pet parent

As a loving and responsible pet parent, you undoubtedly want to do what is best for your canine companion or feline friend.

And having your pet spayed or neutered is one of the best things you can do to keep them happy and healthy. While the primary purpose of these routine procedures is preventing unwanted litters, they also eliminate or significantly lower the risk of certain health problems. They can also curb certain problematic behaviors. At Orting Animal Hospital, we perform spay and neuter in Orting and strongly recommend these procedures for the majority of our patients.

Spay and Neuter Benefits

Spaying and neutering prevent pregnancy and provide a wide range of additional benefits.

These procedures eliminate the risk of certain reproductive cancers, including uterine, ovarian, and testicular. They also significantly lower the risk of mammary tumors as well as prostate issues. A further benefit of spaying is preventing the risk of pyometra, or uterine infection, which is a life-threatening problem requiring emergency surgery for survival.

In addition to these potentially life-saving benefits, spaying and neuter can reduce or eliminate annoying behaviors, like yowling, howling, spraying, and roaming.
