For female dogs, the likelihood of developing hormonal urinary incontinence rises when neutering occurs before three months of age. Therefore, our policy for small and medium breed female dogs is to postpone neutering until they are over six months old. In small male dog breeds the recommendation is to neuter at approximately 6 months of age. If unwanted sexual behaviour or aggression are becoming problematic, neutering may be performed from 4 months onwards. In larger breeds, it has been recommended to delay neutering until the growth plates within their bones are closed. For medium breeds, this may be 8-10 months, for large breeds 12 months of age and giant breeds 18months+. In a study of golden retrievers that were neutered at less then 6 months of age, both sexes were found to be 2-3 times more likely to develop a cruciate rupture than an intact golden retriever. Similarly, golden retriever males neutered at less than 6 months of age were 1.5 times more likely to develop hip dysplasia. This was not the finding in female golden retrievers. If you have any concerns regarding neutering your dog, please give our friendly team a call to discuss making the right decision for your pet. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67a4e71fabef484c3d2fcb94/8aa6dde0-23ef-4fa4-a287-f41e91d56673/catlion.jpg Blog - Neutering: Making the Right Decision for Your Pet's Health - Timing of neutering a cat: To avoid unplanned litters, it is advisable to neuter both male and female cats between 4 to 6 months of age. However, many breeders and rescue organizations often require that kittens be neutered before they are adopted into new homes. In such cases, to ensure a smooth recovery from surgery, Omokoroa Pet Vets Policy requires that kittens must weigh at least 1kg at the time of neutering. https://www.omokoroapetvets.co.nz/blog/reproduction-services monthly 0.5 2025-04-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67a4e71fabef484c3d2fcb94/1744192917751-2HJ7VXBM8FNX3SVNWBSX/ultrasound.jpg Blog -

The thyroid produces hormones that act on all of the cells of the body and are especially important in controlling the cat’s metabolism. Cats suffer from hyperthyroidism if their thyroid gland is producing too much thyroid hormones. It is usually caused by benign overgrowth of the thyroid gland(s) but very occasionally can result from a thyroid cancer (adenocarcinoma, < 2% cases). https://www.omokoroapetvets.co.nz/contact daily
