Podcast: Gonadectomy in Dogs with Dr. Tobias
Karen M. Tobias, DVM, MS, DACVS, University of Tennessee
In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, welcomes back Karen M. Tobias, DVM, MS, DACVS, to talk about her recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Gonadectomy in Dogs: Considerations & Review.” Dr. Tobias lays out evidence for why spaying and castrating dogs at 4-6 months of age should no longer be a universal recommendation. She explains why—and how—we should be taking an individualized approach that focuses on musculoskeletal maturity and accounts for breed-related risks, behavioral factors, and client concerns.
