    • ]]>     Well the big day arrived and the new puppy has been to the vets and had his testicles unceremoniously removed. Poor guy! But I can’t helped being somewhat amused by the fact that with the protective cone on his head he doesn’t seem to realize how much wider he has suddenly become and keeps getting caught up on doors, corners and when passing sofas…

    So – why should you neuter a dog?

    Here’s the advantages…

    • The dog will be healthier due to lower testosterone levels
    • The dog will exhibit fewer territorial behaviours, including aggression
    • A neutered dog is less likely to wander
    • A neutered dog cannot produce offspring
    • A pure bred neutered dog is less attractive to thieves

    And to my mind there’s only one disadvantage…

    • Surgical risk – as with people the general anaesthetic presents an inherent (very small) risk

    To my mind – unless you are a serious breeder or prepared to look after any unwanted offspring, it’s pretty irresponsible NOT to have your dog castrated…

    • ]]>     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?
