PYOMETRA
Pyometra is a uterine infection that develops in undesexed female dogs and cats after a heat cycle. It is a deadly condition that requires emergency surgery costing between $1000-$2000. An unspayed female dog has a 1 in 4 chance of developing this deadly disease if not spayed. This is estimated to increase by 20% every time she has another litter. By us desexing her for free - irradicates the chance of her dying from Pyometra
