Why neuter your dog
For a bitch:
Please ring or email us if you have any questions about this.
Operation prices depend on size. The price may be
increased if the dog is unusually difficult to handle.
These prices are for dogs up to German Shepherd
size, we cannot manage dogs expected to be over
40kg - no giant breeds.
Bitch spay, usually done 3 months after a season
£120 - £190
Dog castration, over 9 months £90 - £120
Neutering can be done from 5 months if needed -
prices will be lower than for a mature animal.
maximum prices: Bitch spay £140, Dog castration £95
For a bitch:
- To prevent unwanted pregnancies - a bitch comes into season
twice a year and the season lasts three weeks. Some breeds
have very large litters, any pregnancy is some risk to the bitch. - To prevent 'false pregnancies' which some bitches get after
each season, and which make them very miserable. - To prevent pyometra - the common womb problem of the
middle aged or elderly unspayed bitch which can require
emergency surgery to save her life.
- To reduce sex-linked behaviour problems - roaming, fighting,
aggression. Castration will not make a bouncy dog less active,
he may concentrate better though, and be easier to train. - To reduce the risk of prostate disease or testicular cancer in
later life.
