At San Antonio Wellness Spay & Neuter Clinic, we know that dogs are more than pets — they are loyal companions and beloved family members. That is why our clinic specializes in providing safe, affordable, and compassionate spay and neuter services for dogs in San Antonio and surrounding communities.
Why Spay or Neuter Your Dog?
Health Benefits
Spaying female dogs prevents life-threatening uterine infections and reduces the risk of mammary cancer. Neutering males eliminates the risk of testicular cancer and decreases the chance of prostate problems. These procedures are preventive measures that help protect your dog’s long-term health.
Behavioral Benefits
Neutered male dogs are less likely to mark territory, roam in search of mates, or show aggression toward other dogs. Spayed females do not go into heat, which means no restless pacing, spotting, or attempts to escape outdoors. Overall, spayed and neutered dogs are calmer, easier to manage, and make even better family companions.
Preventing Overpopulation
San Antonio shelters see thousands of dogs surrendered each year due to unplanned litters. By spaying or neutering your dog, you play an important role in reducing overpopulation and ensuring fewer dogs end up homeless.
Saving Money
Preventing health issues and avoiding the costs of caring for an unexpected litter makes spay or neuter an affordable, smart investment for every dog owner.
When Should You Spay or Neuter Your Dog?
Most dogs can safely be spayed or neutered between 4 and 6 months of age. Large-breed dogs may benefit from waiting a little longer, while older dogs can also undergo surgery after a health exam. Our veterinarians will guide you on the best timing for your dog based on breed, size, and overall health.
What to Expect at Our Clinic
Our veterinary team performs a thorough pre-surgery exam to ensure your dog is healthy enough for the procedure. During surgery, we use modern anesthesia and monitoring equipment to keep your dog safe and comfortable. After surgery, you will receive detailed recovery instructions to help your dog heal at home, and our staff will remain available to answer questions or provide support.
Common Myths About Dog Spay and Neuter
- “My dog will gain weight.” Proper diet and exercise prevent weight gain; the surgery itself does not cause it.
- “It will change my dog’s personality.” Your dog’s unique personality will remain the same, but unwanted behaviors like marking and aggression often improve.
- “It is too risky.” Spay and neuter is one of the most common veterinary surgeries, with very low risk when performed by trained professionals.
