NEUTERING
We recommend neutering any dogs or cats not intended for breeding use. This prevents unwanted litters but, in addition, reduces undesirable behaviour (due to hormonal influence), and reduces the risk of certain diseases, for instance: mammary tumours and uterine diseases in females, and prostate disease, testicular tumours and anal tumours in males.
We recommend that male dogs and cats, and female cats are neutered when they reach six months of age, while female dogs are spayed three months after their first season. For more information and advice please ask one of our nurses or vets telephone 01291 672637.
We accept neutering vouchers to enable clients to bring their pets in for routine neutering.
