Off with his balls…!
March 23rd, 2010
Well – I’ve written a bit recently about the new puppy that joined our family. Now the dreaded hour his here. Tomorrow at 9am he will be separated from his testicles. In some ways it’s a bit sad that being a pure bred Labrador we won’t be breeding him at least once. But from past experience I think it does help calm dogs down as they say, and reduces the risks of them becoming wanderers… Added to that, where we live there are to many strays and muts in need of help it seems wrong to potentially add more into the local population.
I don’t think they take it personally. How can they, they’re dogs not people! But there is always something hard about one male (of any species) doing this to another. I can’t help feel a little bad about it, even if it is the right thing to do…
Writing this reminded me of all the publicity ‘Neuticals‘ received a few years back – so I went off to find the site. Seems that despite all the publicity the site (and presumably business) failed in the end. I wonder what happened to them?
