Dog Neutering

Dog Neutering is a general term used to describe the removal of the dog’s reproductive organs. It consists of a surgical procedure whereby either all or a large part of the organ is removed from the dog’s body. The procedure is carried out because it helps control the growth of dog population to a significant level. It also helps control sexually dimorphic behaviors among dogs such as mounting and urine spraying. While the term neutering is used particularly for males, for females the word spaying is commonly used. Neutering also prevents the incidences of female dogs developing mammary tumors in comparison to those who don’t. While dog neutering has been brought about as a radical anti breeding agenda not all dog owners welcome the idea. They consider it to be an infringement of their rights. Apart from birth control neutered dogs run a high risk of developing reproductive tract infections.
