How is this a "debate" any more than any other informative thread where members are listing the pros and cons of an issue and citing their own experiences.
There is no right or wrong answer to this....only getting the info out there so that every pet owner, and sometimes breeder, can make the decision for each animal with all of the information in front of them.
No one is trying to sway decisions one way or another but simply supply the info and the sites for the members to read up themselves and become better educated on the topic.
Do you just want everyone to say that there are only good reasons to early s/n when that is not the truth? I am not following this.
Those in favor of routine ESN can say why they have reached that decision and those who are opposed can express why they feel it is may not be the thing to do.
Do you not feel the negatives should be discussed at all?
This thread and the one on Early Spay/Neuter have been entirely civil and uneventful with maybe one or two exceptions of posts by those who feel it is wrong to say there that is ever a reason to question neutering a pet.
I feel that we would be doing this board and it's members a disservice to not present as much info as we can find on a topic, pro and con, if we are considering making it a "sticky" especially and then posting it with citations so that each member can make educated decisions for their pets.
For example, Bamafan has decided after reading all of the pros and cons that ESN is what she feels is best. Others will feel differently. That is the beauty of it. Everyone can decide for themselves but they have not been "pressured" by the neuter nazis or their vet or the people against pet over-population.
I know that this will never be a "sticky" but will come up in the searches and we have given more info here than anyone alone knew before these threads so we have taught everyone something and made them think.
Where is the crime in that?
