Pet FAQ

How long is a dog or cat in season?
A dog is in season (or heat) for about 21 days. The first 10 days include bleeding from the vagina, then your dog is ready to accept the male. A cat is completely different from a dog. They go in and out of season all year round until they are either bred or spayed. It always best to spay your pet if you do not intend to breed her so that she does not develop breast or uterine cancer.

Dogs and cats mature quickly and some may be able to reproduce when
they are as young as six months of age. There are many health and behavior
benefits in having your pet neutered or spayed.
What are some of the behavior problems seen in unneutered pets?
- house soiling, urinating on furniture or other inappropriate places
- persistent barking or meowing
- urge of male dogs to "mount" people's legs
- spraying by tomcats and strong urine odor
- increased tendency to roam
- aggression toward people and other animals
- attraction of males by females in "heat"
Neutering your pet can help curb these behaviors!
What are some of the health benefits of having my pet neutered?
Female Pets:
- Eliminates the problem and risks of pregnancy
- Eliminates the frequent problem of cancer and infection of the uterus later in life
- Decreases the possibility of mammary tumors
Male Pets:
- Reduces the risk of prostate problems and testicular tumors later in life
What are some other benefits of having my pet neutered?
In addition to providing behavior and health benefits, neutering
pets is crucial to decreasing the overpopulation of unwanted dogs and cats---
approximately twenty million unwanted dogs and cats are euthanized each year.
At what age should my pet be spayed or neutered?
Currently most veterinarians recommend that you have your pet neutered
or spayed at six months of age.
