Spaying and Neutering Your Dog

November 27th 2008 10:24
Not enough pet parents take the time to do any research about spaying and neutering their dogs, which is why there are so many dogs and puppies in shelters and rescues, and why so many more are euthanized each year.

Many people find that if they let their dog have just one litter, the dog will not miss out on life, but your dog won't miss anything if you spay or neuter it. When dogs reproduce, it's not a sexual thing but an instinct, that they don't have to do and won't miss either way.

My male yorkie was neutered at 3 years old, the only difference in his actions after the procedure than before it is that his behavior has gotten better. He acts no different besides better behavior with other people.


But, anyway... Spaying and neutering will not make your dog behave as a puppy for the rest of your life. Altering your dog will not in any way lock him/her in the puppyhood stage.

By spaying or neutering your dog, you will be making a healthier dog, and you will be helping dog overpopulation by not birthing another litter (on purpose or on accident).

By spaying or neutering your dog, you are not birthing a litter of puppies, who can potentially birth a litter, and so on and so on.

Here's a story, leave your opinions about it. I'd like to hear.
Girl1 wants to breed her un-papered beagles because she just wants to. She will purchase Continental Kennel Club papers for the pups, which surmount to nothing in the world of dog breeding, except the excuse to sell the puppies for more becuase people don't realize that the Continental Kennel Club is not reliable for purebred dogs. She bred the dogs, the male dog, which had a history of severe behavior problems, ended up getting very jealous and she couldn't take the outbursts and shipped him off to the pound because she didn't want to deal with it. She ended up having 9 puppies.


Girl2 explained to Girl1 about the Continental Kennel Club, which she knew it was a fraud. She explained to Girl2 that the male should not be bred becuase he has previous behavior problems and was a pet store, puppy mill puppy, which again Girl2 said was probably correct. Girl1 decided to breed anyway because, as she told Girl2, "I hate that there's an overpopulation problem, but what can I do about it." She bred her dog and had 9 puppies, and that's what she thought she could do.
