Spay & Neuter Services at Lakeside pet hospital

Spay & Neuter Services

Our team at Lakeside pet hospital Santa Rosa, is dedicated to ensuring spay and neuter procedures are safe, comfortable, and stress free for your pet. From energetic puppies and kittens to newly adopted adult pets, we provide complete support at every stage from thorough pre-operative care to attentive post-surgery recovery.

Spaying (for females) and neutering (for males) do more than prevent unplanned litters. These procedures help reduce the risk of certain health issues, support better behavior, and contribute to a longer, healthier, and happier life for your pet.

Spay

A spay (ovariohysterectomy) is a surgical procedure that removes the ovaries and uterus, permanently preventing pregnancy and stopping the reproductive cycle. Spaying your pet before her first heat provides the greatest health benefits, including protection against:

  • Unwanted pregnancies

  • Ovarian and uterine tumors

  • Mammary tumors and serious uterine infections such as pyometra

Neuter

Neutering is a surgical procedure that removes the testicles, typically performed between 4 and 6 months of age, though pets can benefit from the procedure at any stage of life. Beyond preventing unwanted litters, neutering helps reduce behaviors such as roaming, marking, and aggression, while also protecting against testicular cancer and lowering the risk of prostate tumors and infections.

Pet Dental Health Matters

Dental health plays a vital role in your pet’s overall well-being. Just like people, pets require regular dental care to prevent plaque buildup, gum disease, and chronic oral discomfort. However, pets often hide pain, making dental problems easy to miss without routine checkups.

When dental disease goes untreated, it can lead to serious and lasting health issues, including:

  • Tooth loss

  • Painful gum infections and abscesses

  • Difficulty eating and behavioral changes

  • Increased risk to the heart, kidneys, and liver

At Lakeside Pet Hospital, our experienced veterinary team combines advanced diagnostic technology with gentle, carefully monitored anesthesia to provide safe, effective, and stress-free dental care.

Pet Surgery At Lakeside Pet Hospital

Surgery can feel overwhelming—but at Lakeside Pet Hospital, your pet is never just a patient. Whether it’s a routine procedure or a complex surgical intervention, our skilled doctors combine advanced surgical expertise with gentle, compassionate care. We perform a wide range of soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries on-site, focusing on safety, comfort, and a smooth recovery.

Contact Us

What to Expect Before and After Surgery

Before surgery, your pet will receive a comprehensive physical examination along with blood tests to confirm they are fit for anesthesia. In some cases, we may also suggest a pre-anesthetic ECG for added safety.

After the procedure, your pet will require a calm environment, restricted activity, and an e-collar to protect the incision site from licking or chewing. You’ll be provided with detailed aftercare instructions and any necessary medications to support comfort and healing.

Typical recovery timeline:

  • 10–14 days of rest with e-collar use
  • No bathing, swimming, or off-leash activity during recovery
  • Stitches will either be removed or dissolve on their own, depending on the procedure

Compassionate Care for Geriatric Pets

Compassionate Care for Geriatric Pets

Pets are considered geriatric as they reach their senior years, typically around 7 years of age, though this varies by breed and size. Larger breeds tend to age sooner, while smaller pets may remain active longer. As pets grow older, they may experience changes in mobility, senses, and cognitive function, making regular health monitoring and tailored care essential.

Contact Us

Senior Dog Care

Caring for a senior dog at home is similar to caring for a younger pet, with a few important adjustments. Consistent monitoring and preventive care can help reduce discomfort, avoid serious health issues, and support healthy aging.

Tips:

  • Weigh your dog monthly and track any weight changes

  • Observe eating and drinking habits for noticeable changes

  • Transition to age-appropriate senior nutrition when recommended

  • Check the skin regularly for new lumps or bumps

  • Watch for signs of pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility

  • Schedule veterinary checkups twice a year for early detection

What Is Preventative Pet Care?

Preventative care is all about keeping problems from developing in the first place. Through vaccinations, microchipping, parasite prevention, and routine screenings such as blood tests, we can detect early signs of health issues and create a customized wellness plan for your pet.

From energetic kittens to aging dogs, we provide age-specific care and expert advice to help your companion stay healthy and happy throughout every stage of life.

WHY LABWORK MATTERS FOR PETS

Routine lab testing provides a deeper look at your pet’s health beyond what we can see during an exam.
It helps us monitor organ function, detect hidden illnesses, and establish a baseline for future comparisons.

Our in-house diagnostic lab allows for fast, accurate results and immediate insights into your pet’s condition.

Lab Tests We Offer:

Blood Work

Includes a complete blood count (CBC), chemistry panel, thyroid levels, and glucose readings.
These help us assess red and white blood cell health, organ function, hydration status,
and metabolic balance.

Urinalysis

Evaluates urine concentration and identifies signs of infection, crystals, or other urinary issues.

Fecal Exam

Screens stool samples for internal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, and Giardia —
especially important for young or outdoor pets.

Heartworm Test

Detects specific heartworm proteins in your dog’s blood.
This annual test is a vital part of effective heartworm prevention.

Diagnostic Imaging & Radiology

When your pet shows signs of illness or discomfort, advanced diagnostics allow us to look beyond what’s visible. From unexplained limping and abdominal swelling to sudden changes in appetite, our team uses precise testing to identify the underlying cause—so we can deliver timely, targeted treatment with confidence.

The Importance of Early Diagnosis

Early identification of medical conditions gives your pet the greatest opportunity for effective treatment and recovery. With advanced imaging technologies such as X-ray and ultrasound, we can detect health concerns in their early stages—often before symptoms become severe. This timely insight allows us to diagnose internal conditions accurately and create targeted treatment plans with confidence.

  •  Masses or tumors

  • Bladder stones

  • Gastrointestinal blockages

  • Heart and lung abnormalities
