Important information
Recently at the clinic we had another patient with a pyometra, where an infection builds in the uterus and is a very serious condition that needs urgent treatment, so we wanted to take the time to highlight the importance of desexing.
Benefits of desexing:
✨ Health benefits: Desexing can reduce the risk of certain reproductive diseases and cancers.
🏡 Helps prevent unwanted litters.
🐶 Can reduce unwanted behaviours: Desexing may help reduce behaviours such as roaming, urine marking and some hormone-driven behaviours.
❤️ A happier, healthier future: Your vet can help you decide the best age and approach for desexing based on your pet’s breed, size, age and individual needs.
If you’re unsure whether it’s the right time to desex your pet, talk to our veterinary team. We’re here to help you make the best decision for your furry family member. 🐕🐈
