Laparoscopic Spay & Cryptorchid Castrate

Minimally invasive keyhole surgery for spaying female dogs and removing abdominally retained testicles from male dogs.

Laparoscopic (Keyhole) Neutering

Keyhole surgery is a minimally invasive alternative to traditional neutering surgery. Offering a safer, more comfortable alternative by using small incisions and a camera, we perform the procedure with significantly less trauma to your pet.

Benefits of Laparoscopic Surgery

Smaller Incisions

Only 2 tiny incisions (5-10mm) compared to larger traditional incisions

Less Pain

Studies show up to 65% less post-operative pain

Faster Recovery

Most dogs return to normal activity within days

Reduced Complications

Minimal bleeding and lower risk of infection

Better Visualisation

Camera allows for thorough examination of abdominal organs

Less Bruising

Minimal tissue trauma means less swelling

How It Works

During a laparoscopic surgery, we make two small incisions in the abdomen. A camera (laparoscope) is inserted to provide a magnified view of the internal organs on a monitor. Specialised instruments are used to carefully remove the ovaries or testicles with precision and minimal handling of tissues.

What to Expect

After surgery, most dogs go home the same day with minimal restrictions. The small incisions heal quickly, and most pets are back to their normal selves within a few days.
