Webinar 1: "Rethinking routine neutering: Mastering the canine castration consultation"

Join Lluis Ferré Dolcet (DVM, MSc, PhD, ECAR Dipl, EVSSAR Board President), for "Rethinking routine neutering: Mastering the canine castration consultation"

As the first session of a 3-part educational series running from October to December, this program is designed specifically for general veterinary practitioners to bridge evidence-based endocrinology with everyday clinical practice.

This practical session will review the latest clinical evidence—including updated WSAVA reproduction guidelines—to help you move beyond universal sterilization recommendations and design tailored protocols based on patient breed, size, sex, and lifestyle.

Furthermore, we will examine the complete spectrum of options—ranging from traditional surgery to hormone-sparing techniques (such as ovariectomy, ovary-sparing hysterectomy, and vasectomy) and emerging non-surgical solutions—while mastering effective communication strategies to present these complex choices to pet owners with confidence.

You will leave equipped to optimize individualized reproductive care in your daily practice, balancing long-term health outcomes directly from the consultation room.
