Risk acknowledgement

All medical procedures carry risks, ranging from extremely unlikely, to probable. For instance, a female dog will probably feel tender around the incision site of a spay procedure in the days following her surgery. Keeping her quiet, contained and maintaining her pain relief medication exactly as prescribed will help to minimise this discomfort.
​
The best way to reduce risks to your pet is to give a true and clear recount of their medical history (think of any prior anaesthetic complications, allergic reactions, or relevant genetic information), administer all pre- and post-operative medication at home as prescribed, and observe pre- and post- operative instructions strictly, such as crate rest or feeding soft food only.
​
Below is a list of risks that can be associated with different procedures we perform at Petmania Vets. Your pet may experience absolutely none of these, and this list is not exhaustive. We encourage you to discuss any concerns you may have about the risks with a surgery team member at Petmania on 3264 6700.
