Availability

As we reopen our East Nashville clinic, spay/neuter surgeries that were canceled during the shutdown will be scheduled first. If your surgery has been canceled, we will contact you directly to reschedule.

 

We expect that it will take us several months to get through our backlog. Due to high demand, we plan to book appointments only one month at a time. We will share more updates as new appointments become available.​

Spay/Neuter FAQs

Spay/neuter refers to the surgical procedure to render a dog or cat unable to produce litters of puppies or kittens. Female animals are "spayed," and male animals are "neutered."

​

What are the benefits of getting my pet spayed/neutered?

• Reduces animal homelessness, shelter intake, and euthanasia rates

• Stops reproduction and heat cycles

• Decreases risk of certain types of cancer

• May prevent certain behavioral problems: roaming, fighting, "marking" territory, and aggression

• Decreases risk of reproductive infections
