Avon Animal Hospital Provides Spay/Neuter Facility for Pets
Online, October 25, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Avon Animal Hospital encourages all companion animals to be spayed or neutered. It is important to be done at an early age of around six months although in some circumstances, they could be altered at an early age too.
If your pet is not neutered, there could be some serious health issues. Your female is more at risk to develop pyometra (puss in the uterus) or uterine cancer. If you get your female spayed before her first heat cycle, the chances of mammory cancer are almost completely eliminated. For male pets, the risk of getting testicular or prostate cancer may be eliminated by neutering. Spaying/neutering also helps with some behavioral problems such as marking territory, spraying, fighting, and roaming.
The surgeries are performed between 11AM-3PM and pick up times vary between 5PM-8:30PM. Booking drop off times starts at 8AM up until 12:00PM. For your convenience, if you are not able to drop off on the surgery day, the hospital offers drop off the night before at no extra charge. When booking the appointment, you are given pre-surgical fasting instructions (no food past midnight the night before, water through the night is okay but we ask that you take the water dish away in the morning). We would also appreciate if you could please take your dog for a bathroom walk before dropping off.
