Spaying or neutering your dog may seem like a hassle, but there are many reasons why you should.

Spaying and neutering is the best way to avoid unwanted litters of puppies. There are countless dogs and puppies in animal shelters that can’t find homes. Not spaying or neutering your dog is only adding to the problem.

Neutering promotes better behavior in male dogs. Without the need to find a female, male dogs wander less and are generally more pleasant to be around.

Spaying prevents your female cat from going into heat. Not only is going into heat uncomfortable for her, the loud noisescan be a pain for you to live with.

Spaying and neutering can also lessen your dog’s chances of getting certain kinds of cancer. Female cats will also live a longer, healthier life.

To schedule an appointment to have your cat spayed or neutered, call your veterinarian Jacksonville, FL.
