Is $475 too much to spay a dog? How to judge your quote
A $475 spay quote is above 90% of the 183 published prices in our September 2026 survey, and exactly the private-clinic median. Here is how to tell which applies to you.
How these figures are collected
Every figure on this site comes from a price the provider published themselves, recorded with the provider name, city, state and the date it was read. We report medians rather than averages, because a handful of specialist clinics would otherwise drag the number away from what most owners pay. The full method, including how many providers we check to find each price, is on the methodology page.
Prices vary widely by region, by clinic and by your animal’s individual needs. Use these figures to know what is normal, then ask your own vet for a written estimate before agreeing to treatment. Nothing on this site is medical advice.
