Neutering

We recommend getting your pet spayed (female) or neutered (male). Benefits include:

• Neutering makes reproduction impossible, preventing pet overpopulation
• It can prevent life-threatening conditions, including cancer
• Pets spayed or neutered by six months of age are less likely to develop behavioural issues
• Older pets may also behave better after neutering/spaying.
  

Request a neutering voucher for my dog (council tenants only)

We work in partnership with Vets4Pets Hemel to provide help with neutering. If you are a Dacorum Borough Council tenant with a dog you can request a neutering voucher entitling you to a 30 per cent discount.

To request a voucher, email animalwelfare@dacorum.gov.uk with the following details:

• Your name, address and telephone number. For more information on how we use your data, please see our privacy policies page (Regulatory Services)
• Name and description of the dog (include the breed, sex, age and microchip details)
