Spaying and neutering are essential procedures for responsible pet ownership in Brooklyn, NY. At Clinton Hill Animal Clinic, we provide routine spay and neuter surgeries to promote your pet's health and well-being.
The Advantages of Spaying and Neutering
Spaying and neutering offer significant health benefits for both male and female pets:
• Females: Spaying eliminates the risk of life-threatening uterine infections and reduces the chances of mammary cancer.
• Males: Neutering reduces the possibility of prostate problems and testicular cancer.
Behavioral Improvements
Unaltered pets (particularly those who haven't been bred) often exhibit behavioral changes driven by mating instincts. These can include:
• Increased excitability, aggression, or unsociability
• Roaming tendencies, even for indoor pets (who may become destructive in their attempts to escape)
• Territory marking by males, causing unpleasant odors
Spaying and neutering typically reduce or eliminate these negative behaviors, allowing your pet to live a calmer and more enjoyable life.
