I am for neutering... however, I do think there are legitimate reasons not to neuter in certain instances. I also think it's important to wait until their growth plates are closed, etc. I personally would never own an unaltered dog but that's me. Generally speaking the trouble maker dogs at the dog park are dogs NOT neutered! All they are concerned about is lifting their leg on *everything*, humping everything, and are often more aggressive... coincidence? I don't think so.
I personally feel there are hardly enough pros/cons on BOTH sides (to neuter or not to neuter) that you might as well just neuter, simply for the pet overpopulation we have in this world. I don't think the health risks either way are that great... so just do it! |
