For the dog who has everything...well not EVERYTHING! 10-06) 18:25 PDT BOSTON, (AP) -- Gregg Miller mortgaged his home and maxed out his credit cards to mass produce his invention — prosthetic testicles for neutered dogs. What started 10 years ago with an experiment on an unwitting Rottweiler named Max has turned into a thriving mail-order business. And on Thursday night Miller's efforts earned him a dubious yet strangely coveted honor: the Ig Nobel Prize for medicine. "Considering my parents thought I was an idiot when I was a kid, this is a great honor," he said. "I wish they were alive to see it." The Ig Nobels, given at Harvard University by Annals of Improbable Research magazine, celebrate the humorous, creative and odd side of science. Miller has sold more than 150,000 of his Neuticles, more than doubling his $500,000 investment. The silicone implants come in different sizes, shapes, weights and degrees of firmness. The product's Web site says Neuticles allow a pet "to retain his natural look" and "self esteem." Although the Ig Nobels are not exactly prestigious, many recipients are, like Miller, happy to win. |
Ok, I understand that this post is for real..... but REALLY! I just can't imagine..... next up will be silicon implants to enhance a female's bust.... BTW my Irish Setter Joshua had a vasectomy. |
Lexy needs a pair of breast implants! :D |
Oh, that is too funny! What will they think of next? I wonder how you put them on the dog? :p |
My vet told me about this before I had Carter neutered! Its is definitely FOR REAL!!! They cost about $150 and come in different sizes -- pea sized to large walnut sized!! |
I saw that article on CNN.com last week! Amazing! "Lexy needs breast implants" hahahahahahhahahahhahahaha |
Way too funny!!!!! :D :D :D :D |
That might be the solution for when your man doesn't want you to neuter the dog... Just wait till he's out of town on a business trip and order up a pair of Neuticles!! :D |
