I am the owner, or the designated representative for the owner, of the above named pet. I authorize Southport Veterinary Center to administer anesthetics and/or tranquilizers to perform my pet's spay or neuter. I understand there are potential risks when using anesthetics and/or performing surgery and that no results can be guaranteed. Pre-surgical blood work is recommended to find any existing abnormalities. If I cannot be reached at the numbers above, I authorize the veterinarian to do what, in their judgement, is in the best interest of my pet. I understand that there is not an attendant on duty after business hours.
