Post-Surgery Care Instructions for Your Pet

Please watch this short video about caring for your pet after their surgery.

Your animal may need an e-collar if she/he is licking or chewing at the incision site. These are available for purchase at our clinics on the day of surgery.  You may also obtain at either your primary veterinarians’ office or a local pet store. Your animal must be kept indoors and on low activity for 10 days following surgery. Dogs may go out for short, supervised leash walks to use the bathroom during that time. Your animal can not have a bath for 10 days after surgery. We recommend bathing and/or grooming your pet prior to the day of surgery if he/she is used to a regular grooming schedule.

How much is spaying a dog?

While there are a lot of variables, spaying will typically run $50–$500. Costs at the low end of that spectrum are typically subsidized through a public agency. "There are many low-cost spay and neuter clinics around the country to help make the process more accessible to all pet owners," Moore says.

How much does it cost to spay a dog at SPCA?

A dog spay costs R770; dog neuter R530. A cat spay costs R560; a cat neuter R420.

What is the best age to get a dog fixed?

An age of six to nine months of age may be appropriate for neutering or spaying a toy breed puppy or small breed puppy but a larger or giant breed may need to wait until they are near or over 12-18 months of age.

How can I spay my dog without surgery?

Zeuterin is a nonsurgical form of neutering, the only such procedure approved for dogs 3 to 10 months of age by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Neutering by needle works by injecting a solution of zinc gluconate into each testicle, rendering it incapable of producing sperm.
