Prices for vaccination and desexing

We get many phone calls each week, regarding the price of various services. When comparing desexing prices, please make sure you ask about the fluids and pain relief given during surgery. This can have a major impact on the safety and recovery from surgery.

Here we give a cocktail of pain relief drugs and sedatives in the first injection.  Studies show that it is better to pre-emptively treat pain.  So we start pain relief BEFORE the surgery.  During the surgery, they get intravenous fluids that also contain MORE pain relief drugs.  This also provides support for their circulatory system.  Then they get ANOTHER injection that will last 24 hours after the surgery has finished.

If the surgery is estimated to be long or very painful, we have the option to use our laser to speed healing and provide another modality of pain relief.

There is a surcharge for dogs that are obese. We will not willingly do a spey in a dog who is on heat or pregnant. IF we find they are proegnant during the surgerty, there will be a surcharge. This reflects the extra time and risk to do the surgery. This assumes male dogs have both their testicles. Cryptorchid dogs are usually charged similar to dog speys.

Pre-anaesthetic bloods

A suggested extra is bloods taken before surgery begins.  These test the liver and kidney functions, rule out diabetes and inflammatory processes.  This can help identify any sub-clinical problems that we can’t pick up with a clinical exam.  It also informs our anaesthetic choices, so we can better tailor them to your pet.  This adds an extra layer of safety.  In some cases, we will require these to be done.  An example would be an elderly dog getting desexed.
