Getting Ready for Pet Surgery
Once you’re comfortable with the procedure, we talk you through how to prepare your dog or cat for surgery. We typically recommend not feeding your dog or cat before the procedure. Our team will make sure you and your pet are in a good state of mind before moving forward with the surgery.
Pet Anesthesia
We understand that the size of a dog or cat affects the way they respond to anesthesia. We talk owners through the different options available and any potential risks, especially if they own a breed that may be more susceptible to complications under anesthesia, like a Greyhound.
Post-Surgical Care
Once your pet’s surgery is completed and your pet is recovered, we will provide you with instructions on how to properly care for them. Our staff will make sure owners have everything necessary to help their pets achieve a full recovery.
