Spaying is the best form of pet population control. In addition, it eliminates messy heat cycles and prevents unwanted litters of puppies/kittens.

Spaying can be done at any age, although around six months is typically when we recommend spaying your pet.

Allowing your pet to produce a litter is a huge responsibility requiring plenty of time and money to properly care for a growing litter.

Keep in mind costly emergency C-Sections are a possibility.  Speak with your Veterinarian before deciding to breed your pet
