Myths About Spay/Neuter:

1. My pet will get fat.

Pets more often gain weight because of overfeeding and lack of exercise.

2. I can't spay/neuter my pet because he is a purebred.

One out of four animals sitting in shelters are purebred. There are not enough homes for both purebreds and mixed breeds.

3. I want my children to experience the miracle of birth.

Sadly, euthanization of unwanted pets at shelters overshadows the miracle. Your children will learn much more if you teach them how precious life is by spaying/neutering your family pet.

4. My dog won't hunt if he is neutered.

In truth, an un-neutered dog can be distracted from the hunt. Neutering does not have any effect on a dog's personality or instincts, and won't slow them down. A dog's personality is formed by environment and genetics more than sex hormones.

5. It is too expensive to spay or neuter my pet.

We provide a low cost spay and neuter service that makes the surgery more affordable. Spaying or neutering your pet will make them better behaved, happier, and healthier, and will save you money in the long run. There is lots of financial assistance out there to help with the costs of spaying and neutering.

6. It is not important to neuter males, since they don't get pregnant.

We've never heard of immacualte conception in dogs and cats, so this simply isn't true. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango!

Did you know that research has shown that the majority of dog bites are by un-neutered males?

 

Spay & Neuter Clinic

Spaying/neutering your pet is the best thing you can do for him/her.

• You will save lives:
  By spaying/neutering your pet, you reduce the numbers of homeless animals that are put to sleep in shelters every year. Spaying and neutering your pet is the greatest contribution you can make to the welfare of animals in our community!

• You will have a healthier pet who will live longer:
  Scientific research shows that spayed/neutered companion animals live longer and are less likely to develop health problems. It's a myth that allowing a pet to have a litter first is better for the pet.

• Your pet will have fewer behavioral problems:
  Spaying/neutering your pet can reduce many undesirable behaviors such as spraying, roaming, aggression and mounting. Your pet (and you) will be happier as a result!

Who is Eligible for Spay/Neuter?

Healthy dogs and cats over the age of 10 weeks (females over the age of 12 weeks) and weighing at least 2 pounds (but less than 56 pounds) are eligible for surgery.   The clinic is currently available only to Madison and Greene County residents.

We offer low cost vaccinations to pets undergoing spay/neuter. Animals 4 months of age or older without a current rabies vaccination are required by law to receive a vaccinations ($10.00 per vaccine).   Vaccinations and other low-cost services such as ear cleaning, deworming, nail trim, and flea treatment are offered at the time of surgery.

The Madison-Greene Humane Society Spay/Neuter Clinic is committed to ending companion animal overpopulation by providing low cost, quality spay and neuter services.   We also offer low-cost vaccinations only at the time of surgery. Pet overpopulation and euthanasia are a continuing problem across the US. Be a part of the solution: spay and neuter your pets! It's the right thing to do for you and for your pet.
