Why Spaying & Neutering Matters—for Everyone
Spaying or neutering your pet is one of the simplest ways to support their long-term health and help the wider animal community. At Tarrytown Veterinary Clinic, we offer safe, routine spay and neuter procedures in a setting that feels just like home (because it kind of is).
Beyond preventing surprise litters, these surgeries come with lifelong benefits—from lowering cancer risks to reducing unwanted behaviors like roaming or marking. Our experienced team provides gentle, thoughtful care every step of the way—before, during, and after surgery—so you and your pet can feel at ease.
A Small Surgery, A Big Impact
Unspayed and unneutered pets often follow their instincts to wander, mate, or mark territory—which can lead to fights, injuries, or getting lost. Spay and neuter surgery helps curb those behaviors and reduces the risks of reproductive health issues down the road.
We typically recommend spaying or neutering around 4–5 months of age, but every pet is different. We’ll work with you to choose the right timing based on your pet’s age, breed, and overall health.
If you have any questions or would like to schedule a surgical consult for your pet, please call us at 512-500-2468.
