Spaying Your Dog
We recommend spaying all female pets. The benefits to your pet’s health and to help reduce the pet overpopulation crisis make this decision easier.
The following are advantages of getting your female dog spayed:
• Prevention of heat or estrus
• When in “heat”, the female experiences an urge to escape in order to find a mate. This is eliminated.
• It eliminates the possibility of false pregnancy following the “heat cycle”
• Prevention of uterine infection (pyometra)
• The prevention of breast cancer. Dogs spayed before the first “heat” have less than 0.5% chance of developing breast cancer.
• Elimination of the risk of uterine and ovarian cancer
The operation may be performed for several medical conditions. These include:
• Treatment of intractable false or phantom pregnancy
• Females with irregular or abnormal cycles due to ovarian cysts
• Spaying is also carried out on occasions to correct certain behavioral abnormalities
• Treatment of uterine infection (pyometra) or cancer
• Dystocia (difficult birthing) or post caesarean section surgery
What are the disadvantages?
Most of the perceived disadvantages are false. The most quoted of these are that the dog will become fat, characterless, and useless as a guard. Obesity is probably the most commonly quoted disadvantage of spaying. Obesity is the result of overfeeding. By regulating your dog’s diet and caloric intake, you can prevent obesity in neutered or intact males.
Spaying doesn’t cause a change in personality, guarding instincts, intelligence, playfulness, or affection.
When should the operation be performed?
Research reveals that spaying a pet at an early age does not cause any increased risk. Most veterinarians recommend spaying between four and six months of age.
Is there any alternative to surgery?
Not at the present time, although there are several exciting advances being made in this area.
Are there any dangers associated with the operation?
Spaying is considered a major operation and requires general anesthesia. With today’s modern anesthetics and monitoring equipment, the risk of a complication is very low. It has been said that your pet has a greater chance of being injured in a car wreck than having an anesthetic or surgical complication.
What happens when I leave my dog for this procedure?
Your pet will be examined before surgery. Pre-anesthetic blood tests are recommended and performed. If everything is acceptable, your pet will then be given an injection to relax them in preparation for general anesthesia. Most pets will have an intravenous catheter placed to administer the anesthetic and to provide fluid therapy during the surgery. After your pet is anesthetized, a breathing tube will be placed in his trachea (windpipe). This will allow us to deliver oxygen and the gas anesthetic. Many veterinarians use absorbable sutures. We recommend returning to the clinic ten (10) to fourteen (14) days after the procedure to ensure proper healing from the surgery.
Are there any post-operative precautions I should take?
Rest and restriction of activity are the primary post-operative care you should provide. Most dogs can resume normal activity ten (10) to fourteen (14) days after surgery. Until then, leash walks, no running or climbing stairs and lots of rest are the rule.
I am told that letting my dog have one litter will quieten her down.
There is no scientific evidence that having puppies has any calming psychological effect.
