    Ok...

    I am sorry if my excitement offended you. I am such an advocate of spaying and neutering that I can hardly believe anyone would not spay or neuter unless they were planning on breeding their animal.

    We can try to convince you until we are blue in the face but the last decision will be yours. It sounds as though you may have already made up your mind.

    My concern for your dogs would be that a female down the highway, road, street comes into heat and your dog(s) takes off to meet her. Many things can happen on the way...not to mention unwanted off springs.

    I am sorry if I seemed "loud and too brief" to you - or whatever it was that you mentioned..... Your comment wasn't the nicest or necessary either. So we are even.

    I hope you think (or re-think) your reasoning and have your dogs altered. For male dogs, it's a walk in the park compared to female dogs. I am sure there are exceptions to the rule, but most male dogs have NO problems with the procedure.

    Let us know what you decide. Of course, if you do not, you and your dogs will be fine, I am sure.

    By the way, I am a dog and cat owner and treasure every moment I spend with them. I have always had them spayed and altered. My vet highly recommends it. I truly trust my Vet.

    P. S. I just ready your very long post - your third one, that is. I found your knowledge impressive and suggest you contact someone at a Vet school.... and get the details you are looking for. If you don't trust your vet, find a new one you do trust. We are merely "pet owners", not doctors. Some of the people here have be involved in dog and cat rescues for years and/or have had dogs/cats for years. If you are looking for experienced animals owners, you are in the right place. If you are looking for a more detailed explanation other than what we have to offer, then you may have to go somewhere else.

    Good luck.
