Spaying Your Pet Northeast Philadelphia Veterinary Hospital

Spaying Your Pet Northeast Philadelphia Veterinary Hospital

Spaying is the surgical removal, performed under full anesthesia, of a female animal’s ovaries and uterus.  Spaying has many benefits, including health and behavioral advantages for your pet, and the social benefit of preventing a contribution to overpopulation.

After the Doctor reviews your pet’s blood work results and determines that we can safely proceed, an IV catheter is placed to allow for emergency drug access. Your pet will be given an injection for sedation; a tube will be placed in the throat so your pet can be connected to an anesthesia machine which will administer a combination of anesthesia and oxygen. One of our trained veterinary technicians will perform surgical monitoring.
