laparoscopic spay may be the solution you’ve been looking for. At Cascade Veterinary Clinics, we’re proud to offer this minimally invasive surgical technique — performed by our highly trained veterinarians, Dr. Colin Bonnett and Dr. Ty Johnson — right here in North Central Washington.
🔍What Is a Laparoscopic Spay?
A laparoscopic spay, sometimes referred to as a minimally invasive spay or keyhole spay, is an advanced surgical technique used to remove the ovaries through a small incision in the abdomen using a camera (laparoscope) and specialized instruments. Compared to traditional open spay surgery, this technique significantly reduces pain, speeds recovery, and lowers the risk of complications.
🐶 Why Choose a Laparoscopic Spay for Your Dog?
Pet owners today want the best for their companions — and laparoscopic spay surgery delivers multiple benefits:
✅ Less Pain
Studies show laparoscopic spays cause 65% less post-operative pain than traditional spays. That means less discomfort and fewer pain medications.
✅ Smaller Incisions = Faster Healing
The surgical incision is typically less than an inch long, resulting in less trauma to tissues, minimal scarring, and a quicker recovery time.
✅ Reduced Risk of Complications
Because the procedure is performed using magnified video guidance, there’s greater precision and reduced risk of accidentally damaging surrounding organs or tissues.
✅ Ideal for Active Dogs and Larger Breeds
If your dog is high-energy or large in size, a laparoscopic spay minimizes post-op restrictions and helps them bounce back faster with fewer limitations.
At Cascade Veterinary Clinics, Dr. Bonnett and Dr. Johnson are two of the few veterinarians in Central Washington who are specially trained in laparoscopic and minimally invasive surgery. Both doctors have completed advanced surgical training and are experienced in performing laparoscopic spays safely and effectively for dogs of all sizes.
Their expertise ensures your pet receives leading-edge care in a supportive, low-stress environment — from pre-op consultation to post-op recovery.
