Surgery
Spay and Neuter
Spaying or neutering your pet can help them live a longer and healthier life. In addition to preventing unwanted litters, spay and neuter reduces the incidence of certain type of cancers and other conditions such as pyometra. Furthermore, spay and neuter plays an important role in controlling the stray pet population.
We offer safe and effective spay and neuter surgeries at our Galena office!
