Zeutering offers non-surgical neutering for Dogs!

ZeuterinThe Central California SPCA now offers non-surgical neutering for Dogs! Zeutering is the new way to safely and permanently neuter your male dog using a simple injection.

The Central California SPCA is pleased to join the ranks of many clinics across the nation to provide sterilization by the FDA-approved product called Zeuterin. Zeuterin became available recently and could be a “game changer” in efforts to curb the number of homeless animals born each year.

The process is simple. The dog receives a physical exam, a mild sedative and an injection of Zeuterin (zinc gluconate neutralized by arginine) in each testicle. It receives a small tattoo on its groin to show it has been sterilized, although it remains intact. The dog can resume activities in a short time.

The Central California SPCA and the City of San Joaquin are joining up to provide a vaccination and Zeuterin clinic. This clinic will help end their homeless pet problem and provide low cost care for residents of San Joaquin. The clinic will be affordable due to the City of San Joaquin subsidizing a portion of the cost. The clinic will be held in San Joaquin at the city park on Saturday May 17, 2014 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

We are looking forward to working with the City of San Joaquin and, in the future, we hope to provide additional services such as transportation to and from the CCSPCA’s Small Animal Hospital for spaying and neutering services. And many of our male dogs up for adoption during our ASPCA Rachel Ray 100K Challenge will have been Zeuterd!

Zeuterin prices are an affordable $50 for male dogs up to 40 pounds and $60 for 41 pounds and over. For more information about Zeuterin, please contact the CCSPCA at 559.233.7722 ext 107.
