Spay/Neuter

Many myths surround the issue of spaying and neutering dogs and cats. The professionals at Sun City Animal Hospital are here to give you guidance and information, enabling you to make a sound decision regarding your pet.

We explore how spaying and neutering impacts three areas of life:

  • Pets

  • The community

  • Greatly reduces the incidence of breast cancer when spayed before the first heat cycle in dogs

In Males:

  • Eliminates testicular cancer
