Spay & Neuter in Lancaster, CA

The Most Responsible Decision for Your Pet's Future

Beyond controlling the pet overpopulation crisis, spaying and neutering offer significant health and behavioral benefits for your dog or cat. At Boulevard Veterinary Hospital, we prioritize your pet's safety and comfort through every stage of their surgical procedure.

Spaying (Females)

An ovariohysterectomy involves the removal of the uterus and ovaries. This is a major surgery requiring 7-10 days of recovery time.

Prevents unwanted pregnancies and the associated stress/cost
Eliminates the risk of ovarian and uterine tumors
Removes the possibility of life-threatening uterine infections (pyometra)
Ideally performed before the first heat (3-6 months)
Recovery includes pain medication and rest. A small green tattoo is applied post-surgery for identification.

Neutering (Males)

Castration removes the testicles to prevent reproduction. While less invasive than spaying, it still requires monitoring to prevent incision biting.

Reduces aggressive behavior and dominant tendencies
Decreases roaming and territorial marking (spraying)
Eliminates the risk of testicular and prostate tumors
Advised at 4-6 months, but can be done on older animals
Neutering reduces roaming and marking, helping your pet settle into a more relaxed home life.
