Hvad er pointen? Det er en spørgsmål, vi ofte hører, når det handler om samtaler om kastrering. Så lad os fortælle dig, hvorfor det er vigtigt. Kastrering er et udtryk, der bruges til at beskrive en kirurgisk procedure udført under generell anæstesi for at fjerne de reproduktive organer hos både hunde og hundekøn. Du kan høre ordene spay eller kastrere brugt i en veterinær kontekst; de hjælper bare med at adskille proceduren mellem hunde og hundekøn. Hunderne spayes, hvilket indebærer fjernelsen af deres æggestokke og moderhoved, mens hunde kastreres, hvilket indebærer fjernelsen af deres testikler. De fleste hunde kan kastreres fra seks måneders alder, men der er en række faktorer, man skal tage højde for, såsom om de er overvægtige, om de er en stor race, om de har andre sundhedssygdomme, og om de er i sætning. Så hvorfor er det vigtigt? For at undgå risikoen for testikkelcancer hos hunde og moderhodsinfektioner (pyometra) hos hunder. Usættede hunder er også i høj risiko for at udvikle bryster tumorer. For at undgå uventede kuld, især vigtigt for hunde, der lever sammen med sine søskende, da dette øger risikoen for avlsdyr med fødselsfejl. Graviditet og fødsel kan også være en sundhedsmæssig risiko for hunde, især brachycephale racer, som ofte kræver en kejsersøgning, en dyre kirurgisk procedure. For at hjælpe med at behandle adfærdsmæssige bekymringer som humpning eller lugtmærkning. Bestemte adfærdstilfælde hos hunde som frustration, når en nærliggende hund er i sætning, eller aggression mod andre hunde, kan være mindre sandsynlige efter kastration. Er du stadig ikke overbevist? Læs Jelly Beans historie. Jelly Bean er vores gule gammel, der desværre fandt sig som hundevild på 14 år. Jelly Bean blev nylig spayet på vores Health Centre, men under hendes procedure blev det opdaget, at hun lider af pyometra, en alvorlig infektion i moderhovedet. Pyometra optræder typisk et par uger efter en sætning er færdig, et tidspunkt, hvor hormonelle ændringer sker, hvilket øger sandsynligheden for infektionen, og ofte kræver akut kirurgi. Symptomerne på pyometra er ikke altid tydelige, og det var tilfældet for Jelly Bean; det faktum, at hun var bøjet til sit kastreringsprocedure reddede hendes liv. Jelly Bean er nu heldigvis på vej på bedring fra sin procedure i en af vores flotte fosterskoler. Kan The Rescue Hotel kastrere min hund? Ja.

What’s the point? That is a question we often get asked when it comes to conversations surrounding neutering. So, let us tell you why it is important. Neutering is a term used to describe a surgical procedure carried out under general anaesthetic to remove the reproductive organs of both male and female dogs . You might hear the terms spay or castrate used in a veterinary setting, they just help distinguish the procedure between male and female. Female dogs are spayed being the removal of their ovaries and uterus, whereas male dogs are castrated being the removal of their testicles. Most dogs can be neutered from six months of age, but there are a number of factors to consider such as if they are overweight, if they are a larger breed, if they are experiencing any other health conditions and if they are in season. So, why is it important? To prevent the risk of testicular cancer in males and uterus infections (pyometra) in females. Unneutered female dogs are also at high risk of developing mammary tumours. To prevent unplanned litters, this is particularly important for dogs that live with their litter mates as this increases the risk of offspring with birth defects. Pregnancy and delivery can also be a health risk for dogs, particularly brachycephalic breeds which often require a caesarean, an expensive surgical procedure. To help address behaviour concerns such as humping or scent marking. Particular behaviours exhibited by male dogs such as frustration when a nearby bitch is in season or aggression towards other dogs may be less likely to occur following neutering. Still not convinced? Please read Jelly Bean’s story. Jelly Bean is our golden oldie who sadly found herself as a stray at 14 years old. Jelly Bean was recently spayed at our Health Centre, however during her procedure she was found to be suffering from pyometra which is a serious infection of the uterus. Pyometra typically occurs a few weeks after a season has finished, a time when hormonal changes occur increasing the chance of the infection and often requires emergency surgery. The symptoms of pyometra are not always obvious and this was the case for Jelly Bean; the fact she was booked in for her neutering procedure saved her life. Jelly Bean is now thankfully recovering from her procedure in one of our lovely foster homes. Can The Rescue Hotel help neuter my dog? Yes.
