Surgeries We Offer
Spaying & Neutering
Spaying and neutering your pet offer numerous benefits, both for your individual pet and for the broader community. Here are the key advantages:
Benefits of Spaying & Neutering |
---|
Decreases risk for certain cancers |
Can reduce aggressive behaviors |
Can increase life spans up to 3-5 years |
Decreases overpopulation |
Can reduce unwanted behaviors like marking or roaming |
Spaying prevents unwanted pregnancies, heat cycles, and reduces the risk of certain diseases in female pets, including uterine infections and mammary gland tumors. Neutering in males controls overpopulation, reduces aggression and roaming tendencies, and prevents testicular diseases such as cancer and prostate problems, contributing to a healthier and more responsible pet population.
Ear Cropping
Ear cropping should only be done by a licensed veterinarian under monitored anesthesia. We understand that this is a highly controversial procedure. Unfortunately, there are individuals out there who perform this surgery illegally, and we see the repercussions of these “backyard” procedures all too often. At Cadillac Veterinary Clinic we want all pets to receive proper care, especially for these major procedures.
We perform ear cropping on:
PitBulls
Doberman Pinschers
Boxers
Schnauzers
Great Danes
Miniature Pinschers
Cane Corsos
Presa Canarios
We also perform ear cropping on other breeds where it is considered a “usual practice.”

Aside from the actual surgical procedure, we perform ultrasounds and progesterone testing prior to the surgical procedure that help us time it properly and reduce the risks for mom and puppies.

Got a Procedure Coming Up?
We require all pets to be fully vaccinated, including the Bordetella vaccine, before any elective surgery. We also recommend pre-anesthetic bloodwork, which we leave optional to pet owners. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork helps check blood and vital organ function.
