Episode 47: The Truth About Early Spay and Neuter with Dr. Michelle Kutzler
Dr. Michelle Kutzler's journey into understanding the impact of sterilization on dogs began with a personal experience that shook her professional beliefs. After witnessing the devastating effects of cancer on her in-laws' Rottweilers, it sparked her curiosity about the potential link between sterilization and health issues. A pivotal lecture by Dr. David Waters opened her eyes to the crucial role of ovaries in canine longevity, challenging everything she had been taught in veterinary school.Dr. Kutzler's research revealed that removing gonads leads to elevated luteinizing hormone (LH) levels, which can cause a myriad of health problems including urinary incontinence, skin issues, and even cancer.The good news is that there are hormone-sparing alternatives to traditional spaying and neutering, which can prevent reproduction while maintaining hormonal balance.In this initial segment of our two-part discussion, we discuss these alternatives and the importance of educating both veterinarians and pet owners about the long-term health impacts of traditional sterilization methods.____________________________________________ An article that you won't want to miss:https://peterdobias.com/blogs/blog/is-spay-and-neuter-really-the-best-choice-for-your-dog____________________________________________ Visit our website: https://peterdobias.com/Visit us on social media:FacebookInstagramTwitter#DogHealth #HormoneHealth #SpayNeuter #DogLongevity
