Spaying involves surgical removal of the ovaries and uterus. Benefits include the elimination of heat cycles and the chance of pregnancy. It also helps reduce anxious behavior, drastically decreases the risk of mammary cancer, and eliminates the incidence of ovarian and uterine cancer.
Neutering involves surgical removal of the testicles. This procedure will make males less aggressive and help decrease anxious behavior. It also has the added benefit of preventing testicular cancer and drastically decreasing the occurrence of prostatitis (prostate infection). Studies have also shown that pets who have been spayed or neutered live 18-23% longer than their un-neutered or non-spayed counterparts.
