Sterilization
The surgical procedure of spaying or neutering a dog to prevent reproduction and reduce the risk of certain diseases.
Why It Is Important?
Sterilization can affect metabolism and increase the likelihood of weight gain, so proper diet and exercise management are necessary post-surgery.
How to Apply to Your Dog?
After spaying or neutering, monitor your dog’s weight closely. Reduce the daily food intake, if necessary. Maintain regular exercise to offset potential metabolic changes caused by sterilization.
Additional Information?
Seek a veterinarian that can perform gonad sparing sterilazation, ovary-sparing spay for females and vasectomies for males.
