Spay/Neuter Veterinary Clinic of the Sandhills

We administer rabies, DHPP (distemper, hepatitis, parvo, parainfluenza), and FVRCP (feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia) vaccines as core protections for dogs and cats. These vaccines are legally required in North Carolina and critical for preventing fatal diseases. We follow guidelines from the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).

We provide heartworm testing and prevention, including annual screenings for dogs (required for pets ≥6 months starting heartworm prevention) and cats. We offer monthly pill, topical, or 6-month injectable prevention options tailored to North Carolina’s high heartworm risk. Early detection is key for treating this fatal parasite.

We prescribe veterinary-approved flea and tick prevention to protect your pets from diseases like Lyme, Ehrlichiosis, and Anaplasmosis. Options include monthly topicals, chewables, or collars. Our staff assists in selecting the safest and most effective products for your pet’s needs.

We implant lifetime microchips (subdermal GPS-sized devices) with unique registration codes that permanently link to your contact information. Microchipping provides a crucial form of identification for lost pets, increasing their chances of Safe return. We perform initial registration and ensure your contact details stay updated.

As part of our expanded wellness program, we perform pre-anesthetic bloodwork (CBC and chemistry panels) to ensure pets are healthy enough for surgery. Our registered technicians support on-site bloodwork processing, ensuring quick results. These tests help detect hidden health issues before procedures.

We conduct fecal testing during wellness visits to diagnose intestinal parasites (e.g., tapeworms, giardia). This is combined with deworming plans and heartworm prevention to maintain long-term parasite protection. We recommend biannual fecal exams, especially for pets prone to environmental exposure

We provide essential spay and neuter services for dogs and cats, including cryptorchid neutering. Our clinic specializes in low-cost, high-volume surgeries to help reduce pet overpopulation while ensuring safe and humane procedures. We offer both stationary and mobile surgical clinics for added accessibility.
