I agree with you. Some unaltered males do make great pets, but if the owner isn't planning to show them or breed them, the best thing is just to neuter them to prevent accidental breedings, aggressive behavior, testicular and prostate cancer, spraying/marking, etc. I am very happy that your males are very well behaved, but some aren't. Good luck in your show career! Hopefully, one day you will make it on tv to the Eukanuba Tournament of Champions!
