Top 10 reasons to spay or neuter your pet: |
|
5) Cute Cats: Another reason to neuter a male cat has to do with the physical appearance. A cat neutered prior to puberty (most cats are neutered at approximately age 6 months) do not develop secondary sex characteristics. These include a more muscular body, thickenings around the face called “shields,” and spines on the penis.
4) Quite Cats: Some female cats are disruptively annoying when they are in heat, yowling and carrying on. Spaying will end the heat and thus this behavior quickly. pup or dog being "culled" from the breeding program to go on and have a great life.
3) Improvement of the Breed: Spay/neuter helps produce healthy and good-tempered purebred dogs. Spay/neuter allows a breeder to remove dogs from breeding who should not be bred because some of their puppies and the people who lived with those puppies would suffer. Spay/neuter puts a stop to passing on undesirable genetic traits, while allowing the pup or dog being "culled" from the breeding program to go on and have a great life.
2) Cleaner House: The female dog comes into heat every 6-12 months or so. There is a bloody vaginal discharge and attraction of local male dogs. Often there is an offensive odor. All of this disappears with spaying.
1) Bob Barker says so: Another significant reason is that spay/neutered dogs do not produce puppies that join the population of unwanted dogs. Spay/neuter is part of the solution to having to put massive numbers of dogs to sleep because there are not enough homes for all of them. |
