One of the most common questions we hear is, βWhen should I spay or neuter my pet?β
While many dogs and cats are spayed or neutered around 5 to 6 months of age, there isnβt a single age thatβs right for every pet. For some larger dog breeds, waiting a little longer may be recommended, while for others, earlier surgery may be the better choice.
The best timing depends on your petβs breed, size, s*x, health, and lifestyle. During your petβs exam, weβll discuss these factors and help you decide on the most appropriate plan.
If you have questions about spaying or neutering, weβre here to help you make an informed decision.
