Spaying and neutering pets is the most responsible choice owners can make
If you have pets of your own, there’s a good chance your vet has encouraged you to have them sterilized. And while it might sound like a frightening procedure if you were to put yourself in your dog’s shoes, it’s actually the best choice you can make for your pet.
According to Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine, spaying and neutering dogs can help them lead long, healthy lives. Female pets can be protected from developing life-threatening infections and tumors in their reproductive tracts, and they’ll be much less likely to develop breast tumors as well.
There are also plenty of complications that can come along with pregnancy and giving birth for pets, just like for humans, so it’s best to prevent our animals from having to experience that.
We can prevent testicular cancer and various prostate issues in male dogs and cats by having them neutered as well. But these operations bring more than just health benefits; they can have behavioral ones too, Ross University notes.
There are millions of animals waiting in shelters to be adopted already
Female pets won’t go into heat, which can cause them to make loud sounds, become aggressive and sometimes even urinate in places they shouldn’t. And male pets that have been sterilized will be less likely to want to mark their territory or wander away from home looking for action.
