I brought Couver home, and I did notice that he was smelly. I found that his belly hair has to be trimmed to keep him from pottying on his tummy. If this hair is kept short, there are no problems.

I also noticed that after he was neutered, he was less smelly. I find the benefits of neutering outweigh the drawbacks. Having my dog mark my house for his lifetime is not an option for me, so I neuter. I also feel that as a responsible pet owner, it is my duty to fix my animals so that they do not contribute to the overpopulation of animals.

Here are some of the many benefits to neutering:

In the end, it is your decision, but it would not be an option for me.
