Pet Spay & Neuter for Dogs & Cats in Greenland

Getting your female pet spayed, and your male pet neutered is more than a routine surgery to the veterinarians of Greenland Veterinary Hospital. We hold ourselves to high standards and your pet’s comfort means a lot to us. We watch your pet closely throughout the entire procedure and monitor things like blood pressure, temperature and heart rate. Being a stress-free facility means we’ll keep your fur baby as relaxed as possible before and after surgery as well. Dog and cat spay and neuter helps your pet live a happier, less stressed life too. They’ll be less likely to roam the neighborhood, which may leave them lost or injured. Females will also be more carefree when they’re not subjected to what can be frequent heat cycles.

Timely Pet Spay & Neuter

It’s important to get your pet spayed or neutered before they reach sexual maturity. While the times they reach sexual maturity can vary, most healthy puppies and kittens are ready for pet spay and neuter by eight-weeks old. To eliminate the chances of pregnancy, cats should be “fixed” before five-months old. Kittens can start breeding by four-months old and in some cases, have their first litter by then. Dogs can have their first litter by six-months old.

It’s not just the chances of unwanted pregnancies you lower when you get your pet spayed or neutered on time. You can prevent urine spraying and marking in both boy and girl pets. In males, you lower the chances of dog bites and other aggressive behavior by getting them neutered. Lower testosterone levels may help calm hormone-driven qualities. Once a pet gets accustomed to searching for mates, roaming behavior is harder to reel in. Timely pet spay and neuter helps curtail habits that make both you and your pet less stressed. Now we’re all about less stress here in Greenland!
