Growing Interest in Hormone Sparing Dog Sterilization and Recommendations for Standard Identification Methods Linda Brent Parsemus Foundation, San Francisco, CA
Growing interest in hormone sparing dog sterilization and recommendations for standard identification methods Linda Brent Parsemus Foundation, San Francisco, CA Abstract Sterilization methods for pets have been around for more than a century, but the practice of spaying and neutering dogs varies globally, from being considered a standard of responsible care in some countries to an infringement of animal welfare in others. In the US, advocacy for spay/neuter programs became widespread in the 1970s to address canine overpopulation. More recently, research on the impact of canine neutering has identified potentially serious health and behavior consequences of removal of the gonads and associated sex hormones that appear to be influenced by sex, breed, age and environment. An alternative is hormone preserving sterilization, including hysterectomy and vasectomy, which allows population control while maintaining natural hormone concentrations. Informal analyses regarding alternatives to traditional spay/neuter indicate that interest from the public and veterinarians has grown in the last 2 years, public demand for veterinarians who offer alternatives is increasing and although most veterinarians acknowledge the pros and cons of gonadectomy, the number providing hormone preserving sterilization is very low. Given current trends toward individualized medicine and increasing public demand, it is likely that the number of practitioners who offer vasectomy, hysterectomy or other hormone reserving sterilization procedures will grow. Now is the time to develop standard methods of identifying dogs who have received such procedures, so that they do not unnecessarily undergo a second surgery. Following an analysis of current practice and available identification methods, we recommend that simple green tattoos be applied to the inguinal area (“X” for hysterectomy and “V” for vasectomy) to identify sterilized dogs. -

News Release
NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Stacee Daniel, ACVO Director American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists Ph: 208.466.7624 Fx: 208.466.7693 [email protected] www.ACVOeyeexam.org; www.ACVO.org 10,000 SERVICE DOGS TO RECEIVE THE GIFT OF PRESERVED SIGHT United States of America, May 12, 2008 – The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® (ACVO®) and Pet Health Systems (PHS) are launching the ACVO® National Service Dog Eye Exam event the week of May 12th. This unprecedented event will provide free sight-saving eye exams and preventative health reports to 5,000-10,000 Service Dogs. Over 140 board certified veterinary ophthalmologists and 1,300 general veterinarians across the US will work together to provide these services at no cost to Service Dog groups including: guide dogs, handicapped assistance dogs, detection dogs and search and rescue dogs. With this event, ACVO® and PHS hope to give back to these animals who selflessly serve the public for no compensation. They will accomplish this goal while donating nearly One Million dollars in services to the 5,000- 10,000 Service Dogs anticipated to participate. An ACVO® Diplomate recently hosted a local ‘test’ event in Memphis, TN and examined 87 Service Dogs. The local event was so successful that ACVO decided to offer this program on a national scale. One seeing-eye dog, “Quest”, was diagnosed with a possible sight-robbing tumor, which would be devastating to both him and his owner, Mr. Ron McKenney. We are hopeful that through the partnership of a veterinary oncologist and veterinary ophthalmologist Quest may be able to retain his sight. -

Abstract Go to: The number of veterinarians in the United States is inadequate to meet societal needs in biomedical research and public health. Areas of greatest need include translational medical research, veterinary pathology, laboratoryanimal medicine, emerging infectious diseases, public health, academic medicine, and productionanimal medicine. Veterinarians have unique skill sets that enable them to serve as leaders or members of interdisciplinary research teams involved in basic science and biomedical research with applications to animal or human health. There are too few graduate veterinarians to serve broad national needs in private practice; academia; local, state, and federal government agencies; and private industry.
