I did my girl by ovariectomy, just don’t want to do things differently to the rest of the team on clients dogs. I do think it was quicker , easier and less traumatic

I don't do lap spays - but will do routine ovariectomies ( not done the uterus removal for years) but surgery ain't my thing

However I think the lap spays recover much faster - not always a good thing - and the larger clipped area means more potential for things like clipper rash

On balance I think its a good thing for the animals, and I put my money on that for my own dog very happily. She recovered like nothing had been done.

Those 3 to 5 days extra agility training must be really important!

We do them - based in Worthing so not too far, and we take referrals

One of the practices on the IOW was doing them and Anderson Moores were offering them at a non-referral (but hefty) price.

Not sure about Southern Counties but could be worth a call.

The “ why” is an agility person who knows me who wants a GSD and a chihuahua cross to be spayed that way. There is a perception within the agility community that the dogs are less painful and can return to agility more rapidly after laparoscopic spay rather than traditional methods.

No idea, but as per a few years ago on here, would question why primarily.
