Spaying (Female)
Spaying your pet has many benefits. The procedure, which prevents female animals from becoming pregnant and reproducing, can help your dog or cat live a longer, healthier life. Spaying will not change your pet’s personality.
By spaying your female pet, you’re protecting her against potentially deadly diseases,
including bacterial infections, reproductive tract diseases, and several types of cancer. You also won’t have to worry about her going into heat. This means avoiding the mess that often accompanies the heat cycle in female dogs and the pacing and crying that happens with female cats. In addition, spaying your pet will help control the dog and cat overpopulation problem, keeping more animals out of shelters.
Spaying, which involves removing the ovaries and uterus, is a surgical procedure and does need to be performed with the pet under anesthesia.

Soft Tissue Surgery
We perform many types of soft tissue surgeries at our vet hospital. Soft tissue surgeries are those that are not associated with bone. These surgeries can provide many benefits to pets. Soft tissue surgery also includes surgery within the abdomen to remove foreign objects and masses or taking biopsies.
Probably the most common soft tissue surgery performed on pets is the removal of masses, or lumps. Sometimes, once removed and tested, are found to be benign (non-harmful); however, occasionally they are more serious. Early removal and accurate diagnosis of a lump is necessary to improve the outcome in your pet if the mass is cancerous.
