Frequently Asked Questions
When should I spay or neuter my dog?
Traditional recommendation: 6 months. Current research suggests large/giant breeds may benefit from waiting until 12-18 months for skeletal development. Small breeds: 6 months is usually fine. Discuss timing with your vet based on breed and health.
How long is recovery from spay/neuter?
Neuter: 5-7 days of restricted activity. Spay: 10-14 days of restricted activity. Keep the incision dry and prevent licking (use a cone or recovery suit). Most dogs are back to normal energy in 2-3 days but need restricted activity to allow internal healing.
