Spay/Neuter Information
Spaying/Neutering stops production of vital hormones, shortens life span and predisposes dogs for cancer, obesity, and orthopedic problems. Get the facts before you decide. |

Removing Testes or Uterus Is Not Worth The Health Risks!The first thing dog owners should know is that...
Removing the risk of ovarian, uterine, mammary or testicular cancer by slicing out hormone-producing organs is like removing the legs to prevent bone cancer.
The second thing to know is that there is absolutely no "crisis of pet overpopulation." Census and law enforcement records prove no pet overpopulation problem exists. In fact, shelters actually import cute mutts from foreign countries and buy puppy mill purebreds!
The third thing, and perhaps the most sobering fact, is that a spayed or neutered dog can still raid garbage cans, fight with other dogs, chase cats, bicycles, and children.
The last thing veterinarians tell dog owners is "The best prevention for unwanted breeding is a fence"
"Fencing will prevent your dog from being a bothersome stray or from being run over and that is indeed a health benefit! Plus, your neighbors will be grateful."
Veterinarian websites tend to be slanted because so much of the content is canned information gleaned from animal rights zealots. TheDogPlace is fortunate to have first-hand input from our Science And Advisory Board and veterinary writers.
We have compiled (instant enlarge) ii spay and neuter information from several sources, including this extract from Wikipedia, the net's #1 encyclopedia.
Your takeaway from this? Stop and think. Humans are given hormone replacement therapy if accidentally castrated (neutered) or undergo hysterectomy (spayed).
