Dear Baark!
My wife and I are having a big discussion on whether or not we
should get our dog neutered. She is in favour of the procedure. I am nervous
that my dog will be turned into a wimpy, lazy dog and I really do not want to
take away his manhood. Can you help us!
Signed, T.J Rolle
Dear T.J.
First off, you cannot take away your dog’s manhood; he never had
one. He is a dog not a man. Your dog
will not care (after he heals) that his family jewels are missing. In fact he
might like the rest as he will no longer be feeling the need to follow his
every urge or find every female dog in heat.
Dog-hood, in contrast to the current definition of manhood is
not defined by the size of the anatomy; it is defined by the ability to be
loyal and loving to a family. To be honest manhood should be defined by this
too!
Your dog’s personality once neutered could change slightly but
it is a change that comes from not being as focused on procreation. Most owners
welcome this shift in their dogs focus and are able to better handle their dog
which creates a better dog – human bond.
The procedure is very safe and quick, and most dogs heal very
quickly. Neutering your dog helps your dog live a healthier and long life too! We
at Baark! vote strongly in favour of your wife’s thought and ask that you take
your dog to be neutered.
Thanks for asking,
Baark! on!
