You made a point to tell me that your daughter has a full time job and moved out by herself! how was that relevant to spaying ans nuetering your dog? the only reason i asked you the question was because you said i stayed at home with two intact females, which i do not because i have moved out. Despite that, this right here is not what my post is about! I am not upset about the responses i have gotten!! as i said before i am upset that people have decided to attack me rather then just refferring to thier own personal experiance like YOU for example! i have nothing to do with your personal experiance. You stated that already in the beginning so as far as im concerned i dont even know why you are telling me what i should or should not do.
Here is an excerpt from an article ive read regarding spay and neuter on dogs. you can read it if you like. I have nothing more to say about my personal life! so if you want continue to talk about me, and not the issue which is how people feel about getting THIER dog fixed and how they feel about THIER decision then i will no longer entertain your posts. BEcause where i live, my job, my home my mother and sisters dog, my hazel whatever none of it has anything to do with my SHia who is whom im talking about.
Here is the link if you want to read the whole thing, its 12 pages long. this excerp is from the 2 and 3 pages.

immature male dogs, in order to prevent future health problems. The number of health problems associated
with neutering may exceed the associated health benefits in most cases.
On the positive side, neutering male dogs
eliminates the small risk (probably <1%) of dying from testicular cancer
reduces the risk of non-cancerous prostate disorders reduces the risk of perianal fistulas
may possibly reduce the risk of diabetes (data inconclusive)
On the negative side, neutering male dogs
if done before 1 year of age, significantly increases the risk of osteosarcoma (bone cancer); this is a
common cancer in medium/large and larger breeds with a poor prognosis.
increases the risk of cardiac hemangiosarcoma by a factor of 1.6
triples the risk of hypothyroidism
increases the risk of progressive geriatric cognitive impairment
triples the risk of obesity, a common health problem in dogs with many associated health problems
quadruples the small risk (<0.6%) of prostate cancer
doubles the small risk (<1%) of urinary tract cancers
increases the risk of orthopedic disorders
increases the risk of adverse reactions to vaccinations
