Spay and Neuter in Salem, VA
Spaying or neutering your pet provides numerous health and behavioral benefits. Sterilization through spaying, a common procedure performed by our skilled veterinary surgeons, can prevent certain cancers and infections in female pets.
In male pets, the surgical sterilization known as neutering can curb aggressive behaviors and eliminate risks of testicular cancer.
Our friendly staff at Salem Animal Hospital recommends this invaluable veterinary service to protect your family pet’s well-being. Typically completed when animals reach 6-12 months of age, these procedures not only contribute to a healthier pet but also help control the animal population within our community.
