When and Why to Spay/Neuter
​
Fixing your dog prevents pregnancy and the birth of unwanted puppies. Our goal in rescue is to educate and promote spaying and neutering so that no dog is unwanted. In addition, fixing your dog has added health benefits including increased life span. In males, it eliminates the risk of testicular cancer and in females eliminates uterine infections and significantly decreases the risk of mammary tumors. Generally spaying/neutering should be done after the Dog has reached 4-6 months old. There is no need to wait until the female to have her first heat cycle and be able to get pregnant. This is what we need to prevent.
