RESPONSIBLE
pet care, and one of the most effective ways to ensure your pet’s well-being while helping reduce pet overpopulation is through spaying and neutering. Our compassionate veterinary team in Fort Washington, MD, provides safe and professional spay and neuter services customized to your pet's individual needs.
The Importance of Spay and Neuter Surgery
Spaying and neutering are essential for preventing unwanted litters and minimizing pet overpopulation. Shelters are overwhelmed with unwanted puppies and kittens, and responsible pet owners can help address this issue by choosing to spay or neuter their pets.
Beyond population control, spaying and neutering offer significant health benefits. Neutering reduces the risk of testicular cancer in male pets, while spaying minimizes the chances of breast tumors and uterine infections in female pets. Additionally, neutered pets are less likely to roam, mark their territory, or exhibit aggressive behaviors. By avoiding potential health issues, you can save on future medical expenses.
