Since I have my puppies s/n before they leave I was very happy to hear that. So, of course I do suggest getting all pets s/n. The earlier the better.

Good luck!
Not to be argumentative, but in support of my never ending search for knowledge, I would be very interested in reading that study. Do you have a citation for it?

It doesn't make logical sense that what you say could possible be true since we know how very important the reproductive organs are for regulating hormones and other organs throughout the body and how humans who lose their reproductive organs usually go on medication to take the place of those lost hormones.

I would assume it would be the same for all living creatures.
