Spay and Neuter Clinic for Dogs & Cats

Spay and Neuter Services in Dundee, Elgin & Algonquin, IL

You may have heard the words “spay and neuter your pets” many times before. While we have come a long way in veterinary medicine, pet overpopulation is still a major concern in some areas of the country. It’s important to our spay and neuter clinic at Dundee Animal Hospital that your pets have a healthy start in life. One of the fundamental steps we recommend for all of our clients is to have their pets spayed and neutered while they are still young.

Cat and dog spay and neuter surgeries are both a preventive and preemptive form of treatment. Your pet’s life may just be starting, but you need to anticipate potential problems in their future. Spaying and neutering prevents unplanned pregnancies and reduces or eliminates undesirable behaviors. Furthermore, it eliminates the possibility of your pet developing cancer when they are older. Your pet’s age, breed, species and health history may also play a role in determining whether surgery is the best option.

Our veterinarians at our spay and neuter clinic have accumulated years of experience performing spay and neuter surgeries, and they always implement strict safety policies. From pre-anesthetic exams and bloodwork to monitoring, we can assure you that your pet will be kept as safe and comfortable as possible. If you would like to arrange for a consultation with your veterinarian and discuss spaying and neutering for your pet, give us a call–we would love to hear from you!

Real Stories from Real Owners

Our dogs are family! We’ve been so grateful to have an emergency room nearby during difficult moments.
I can't recommend this place any highly. The staff are awesome and the doctors are top notch. I trust nobody but them with my dog!
I recently visited Dundee Animal Hospital of Elgin with my pup, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Dr. Lupo was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything clearly. He created a thorough game plan for my pup’s diagnosis and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.

The entire staff was welcoming and professional. We’re excited to have found them and feel confident knowing our pup is in great hands here. Highly recommend!
All my girls go to the vet here and we always have such pleasant experiences with the staff and the doctors.

I really appreciate the doctors and staff that have taken care of my girls. You can tell they really care.
