Sterlisation is the surgical removal of testes in males (castration) or the removal of the uterus in females (spay), and is carried out under general anaesthetic. There are many reasons to sterilise your pet: prevention of unwanted puppies or kittens; reducing behavioural problems; prevention of unwanted attention from male dogs when in season; and reducing health problems including the risk of testicular, cervical and mammary cancers as well as the prevention of uterus infections (pyometra).
This procedure can be carried out from six months of age, and is an out-patient procedure where your animal is admitted to the clinic in the morning and taken home late afternoon.
