Recent estimates from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aspca.org\/helping-people-pets\/shelter-intake-and-surrender\/pet-statistics\">ASPCA<\/a> say that roughly 6.3 million companion pets end up in shelters every year in the United States.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mobile veterinary clinics like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athomepetdr.com\/\">At Home Pet Doctor<\/a> make spaying and neutering pets more convenient, but some pet parents still wonder if it\u2019s truly necessary. Read on for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athomepetdr.com\/blog\/experienced-veterinarians-discuss-spaying-your-dog\/\">important insights on spaying and neutering<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Spay\/Neuter Your Pet?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most obvious reason for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athomepetdr.com\/veterinary-services\/soft-tissue-surgery.html\">spaying or neutering pets<\/a> is to prevent unwanted pregnancies. But the benefits of spaying and the benefits of neutering offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athomepetdr.com\/veterinary-services\/wellness-preventive-care.html\">health and wellness<\/a> advantages, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Health Benefits of Spaying<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spaying female pets provides the following health benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Eliminates the risk of uterine and ovarian cancers, since spaying a female pet involves the removal of those organs.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because hormones play a role in the growth of certain cancer in dogs and cancer in cats, like mammary cancer, spaying a kitten or puppy prior to her first heat cycle greatly reduces this risk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Besides reducing or eliminating the risk of some cancers, spaying eliminates the risk of a potentially fatal infection of the uterus called pyometra, which can occur in unspayed pets.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Intact female cats are more likely to battle over mates, which puts them at a higher risk of cat-specific <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athomepetdr.com\/veterinary-services\/sick-pet-evaluation-treatment.html\">illnesses<\/a> like feline leukemia and feline AIDS, since these diseases spread through bites.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Health Benefits of Neutering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Male pets also stand to gain health advantages when neutered. Consider the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The risk of testicular cancer is eliminated because neutering involves the removal of the testicles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A neutered male\u2019s testosterone production is reduced, which lowers his risk of developing prostate diseases.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Behavioral Benefits of Spaying\/Neutering<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Altered animals tend to be better family pets for these reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>They are less likely to \u201cspray.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They are less aggressive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They are less likely to exhibit \u201cmounting\u201d behavior.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Un-spayed females in heat vocalize (a lot!) and make quite a mess.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An estimated 85 percent of dogs hit by cars are intact males.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discuss the Timing With Your Veterinarian<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Spay and neuter surgeries are typically performed by the time a cat or dog is six months old, but a study from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucdavis.edu\/news\/when-should-you-neuter-your-dog-avoid-health-risks\">University of California, Davis<\/a>, points to an increased risk of cancer in dogs and certain joint disorders when a dog is spayed or neutered before the age of one year. A dog\u2019s vulnerability to these risks varies significantly from breed to breed. Choosing the right time to spay or neuter your dog should be discussed with your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athomepetdr.com\/staff\/\">veterinarian<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We welcome your questions about spaying or neutering your pet.
