There is no private or public humane society in your whole area? They almost always run very low cost spay/neuter clinics a few times per year.

Other than the obvious reasons of unwanted offspring the facts are proven that intact dogs and cats are at much higher risk factors for exactly the diseases spelled out in the above post by Montessa Python. That's scientific fact that if you keep your animal intact you could be allowing them to face illnesses that not only may kill them but in the end could cost you a heck of a lot more in vet bills to try and save them than the original spay or neuter ever would have.

However, as far as this vet you are discussing, their clinic is THEIR business, it's YOUR business if you use them or another vet but you cannot dictate to them, anymore than you want them dictating to you, how they set their clinic standards of care.
