Spaying is the term used to describe a surgical procedure called on ovariohysterectomy. During the procedure, we remove the uterus and ovaries to prevent a dog or cat from becoming pregnant. However, in addition to preventing unwanted litters and ensuring that your pet doesn’t contribute to the already-overwhelming homeless pet population, this routine procedure offers health and behavioral benefits.
At Preventive Veterinary Medicine Clinic, we perform spaying and
neutering in Pepperell, and we recommend this surgery for most of our patients.
