Thank you to Portucool<\/a> who have been raising money to help with sterilisation surgery.<\/div><\/div>
This is a most important part of our work.<\/div><\/div>
Here are three of the top reasons to sterilise:<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div><\/div>
\u2022 Prevent unplanned puppies.\u00a0<\/div>
Sterilisation is a responsible way to prevent accidental breeding resulting in unwanted puppies.<\/div><\/div>
\u2022 Reduction of certain health risks.<\/div>
Sterilisation can lead to a reduction in certain health risks for both female and male dogs. Unspayed females can develop a painful and life-threatening infection of the uterus called pyometra and are also at a higher risk of mammary tumors. Neutering a male dog prevents testicular cancer and reduces the risk of other problems, such as prostate disease.<\/div><\/div>
\u2022 May help with certain behaviour issues.<\/div>
In addition to reducing roaming, sterilisation can often, though not always, help reduce or eliminate undesirable behaviours and may also decrease aggressive behaviour in some dogs.<\/div><\/div>
If you want to know more about how to sterilise your dog, talk to us or contact your local vet.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
