Desexing & Surgery

Desexing

Desexing benefits both you and your pet. We know you want the absolute best for your furry friend, so we offer a range of extra services alongside desexing to keep your pet comfortable.

Our experienced team will walk you through the entire desexing process, including pre, during, and post-surgery.

When you book your pet in for desexing, remember they can’t get wet for 10 to 14 days after surgery. They may feel sick or irritable for those two weeks, too. After a surgical procedure, we all need a little extra time to get back to normal.

The price of desexing surgery ranges from $60 to $500 based on the species, gender, age, and size of your pet. Contact us for an exact quote.

How we do desexing differently:

^

Pre-anaesthetic blood tests so your pet is fit for anaesthetic

^

Fluid therapy to replace fluids & electrolytes lost during surgery

^

Additional pain relief after surgery to keep your pet comfortable

Dental

Approximately 80% of dogs and 70% of cats suffer from dental disease by the time they turn three.

Like humans, pets are vulnerable to gum disease and dental problems. If you’re worried about your pet’s teeth, bring them in for a thorough clean and scale to remove the buildup of tartar and plaque. If your pet has problem teeth, we can also remove them.

Our clinic has state-of-the-art dental equipment. We perform our procedures while your pet is under anaesthetic for the most thorough and detailed exam possible.
