Surgeries

Eye Surgery

The eyes are windows not just to the world, but to how your pet experiences joy, curiosity, and connection. When vision is compromised, it affects everything. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, eye surgeries are approached with care, precision, and deep respect for your pet’s comfort. Every blink, glance, and gaze matters—because seeing well means living well.

Spaying / Neutering

Spaying and neutering is more than a procedure—it’s a step toward your pet’s lifelong wellbeing. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we understand the emotional weight behind this decision. With thoughtful guidance and compassionate care, we support both you and your pet through this transition, helping reduce future health risks and contributing to a more balanced, loving life for your companion.

Soft Tissue Surgery

Whether it’s removing a mass, correcting a hernia, or addressing internal concerns, soft tissue surgery can be a critical step toward healing. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we treat each case with a gentle, careful approach tailored to your pet’s unique needs. Behind every incision is a desire to restore comfort and allow your pet to move forward with ease.

Orthopaedic Surgery

When pain affects how your pet walks, jumps, or even lies down, it’s more than physical—it touches their spirit too. Dunbar Animal Hospital offers orthopedic surgical support for conditions affecting bones, joints, and mobility. Our goal is to help bring back those tail wags, gentle stretches, and playful steps that tell you your companion is feeling strong again.

Cesarean Section

When complications arise during birth, time and skill can make all the difference. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we perform cesarean sections with urgency and care, focusing on the health of both mother and newborns. These moments are intense, but they can also be incredibly beautiful—and we’re here to support your family through each heartbeat and breath.

Dental Surgery

Dental pain can be silent but significant. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we look beyond the surface of your pet’s smile to address infection, fractures, or disease that can affect overall health. Through careful dental surgery, we aim to relieve discomfort and restore comfort— because eating, playing, and even a soft nuzzle all begin with a healthy mouth.

Tumor Surgery

Hearing the word “tumor” brings immediate worry. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we handle tumor surgeries with thoughtful evaluation and open communication. Whether the growth is benign or more serious, we provide gentle care and clear options. You’re not alone in facing the unknown—we’re here to walk through it with you, step by step, with compassion and skill.

Gastric Dialation Volvulus

Gastric dilation volvulus happens fast and can be life-threatening. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we respond swiftly and carefully in these moments of crisis. GDV requires urgent surgical attention, and we’re prepared to act with calm and focused care when your pet needs it most. When every second matters, our commitment remains steady—to give your pet a fighting chance.

Entereotomy

Swallowed objects, intestinal blockages, or foreign bodies can turn dangerous quickly. An enterotomy can help remove the cause and give your pet relief. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we take these situations seriously, guiding you with clarity and care. Our goal is always to help restore balance to your pet’s system—and bring them back to comfort and health.

Gastrotomy

Whether it’s for long-term nutritional support or to address a medical need, a gastrostomy is a significant procedure. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we take time to explain the process, recovery, and aftercare, making sure your pet is safe and supported. It’s about restoring strength when eating becomes a struggle—and helping your pet regain the energy to heal.

Cystotomy

Bladder stones, infections, or abnormalities can cause painful symptoms and serious complications. A cystotomy allows us to investigate and treat what’s hidden beneath the surface. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we offer this surgical solution with precision and a gentle touch, working toward a future where your pet’s tail wags with comfort, and their days are free from urinary distress.

Splenectomy

Whether due to trauma, tumors, or other conditions, removing the spleen is sometimes necessary to preserve your pet’s quality of life. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we approach splenectomies with careful preparation and close monitoring. It’s a big decision, and we’re here to ensure that you feel supported—because every step of your pet’s journey matters to us.

Exploratory Services

Sometimes symptoms don’t have easy answers. When non-invasive tests fall short, exploratory surgery becomes a way forward. At Dunbar Animal Hospital, we use this option thoughtfully—only when needed and always with your pet’s comfort in mind. Because uncovering what’s hidden can open the door to healing, and your pet deserves every chance to feel well again.
