We have all seen an episode of The Price is Right and heard the famous closing line that is always spoken by the host, “Help control the pet population. Have your pets spayed or neutered”. This line has been a standard for decades and continues to be said every day at the end of the show. The truth is that there are a lot of great reasons why you should have your pet neutered. This is especially true with dogs. If you are looking for an animal hospital in the Riverview, Florida, area that is trusted by the community and that will safely spay or neuter your animal, you should drop by Pavilion Crossing Animal Hospital & Grooming to see Dr. Keshava Eega. Dr. Eega will take you through the process of getting your dog neutered.
It used to be easy to answer the question of whether or not you should get your dog spayed or neutered. There are many great and very beneficial reasons why you should do this while your dog is still a puppy. Dogs which have been neutered are much less likely to develop the urge to wander and will be less aggressive than dogs that are not neutered. Dogs that are neutered have also been found to live longer lives and be less likely to succumb to infectious diseases.
Female dogs which are spayed early in their life run a minimized risk of developing forms of cancer in their reproductive system and pyometra. Owners will not have to face the challenge of an animal that is in heat every six months to a year.
Dogs which are neutered also are less likely to develop the habit of marking their territory via urine marking indoors and run a decreased risk of developing prostatic hypertrophy, a condition where the prostate becomes enlarged and causes animal trouble when they need to go to the bathroom.
If you are interested in getting your pet spayed or neutered, reach out to Pavilion Crossing Animal Hospital & Grooming in Riverview, Florida. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Keshava Eega, call (813) 670-8881 today.
