Surgery can be a stressful topic for pet owners, but Founders Green Animal Hospital aims to provide reassurance through expertise, preparation, and compassionate care. The hospital’s veterinary team is extensively trained to perform a wide variety of surgical procedures, ensuring that pets receive individualized treatment tailored to their needs.

One of the most common procedures performed is spay and neuter surgery. Founders Green Animal Hospital strongly recommends spaying and neutering for all pets due to the significant health and behavioral benefits. Pets that undergo these procedures often live longer, exhibit improved behavior, and are less likely to roam or display mating-related behaviors.

Spaying female pets, typically performed between five and twelve months of age, involves removing the ovaries and uterus. This procedure helps prevent uterine infections, eliminates the risk of ovarian and uterine tumors, and reduces the risk of breast cancer by up to 90%. Neutering male pets, which involves the removal of the testicles, can lower the risk of prostate cancer and significantly reduce unwanted behaviors.

In addition to spay and neuter services, Founders Green Animal Hospital offers a full range of soft tissue surgeries. These include mass removals, trauma and laceration repairs, hernia repairs, and bladder stone removals. Mass removals are particularly important, as even benign growths can grow, interfere with surrounding tissues, or become cancerous over time.

The hospital also provides orthopedic surgeries addressing conditions such as hip dysplasia, ligament injuries, luxating patellas, and disc disease. These procedures are designed to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall quality of life for pets.

Foreign body removal is another critical surgical service offered. Pets sometimes ingest objects that cannot pass safely through their digestive system, potentially causing life-threatening blockages. Prompt surgical intervention can prevent severe complications, and pet owners are encouraged to contact the hospital immediately if ingestion is suspected.

Prior to any surgical procedure, pets undergo a thorough physical examination and blood work to ensure they are healthy enough for anesthesia and surgery. Eligible clients may also qualify for special promotional offers, including $50 off recommended procedures.
