Spaying and Neutering: A choice of responsible pet owners

I got up early in the morning and went to a veterinary clinic with father and sister. We reached the place at around 8 am, but the doctor was not there yet, so we waited for him. When, the doctor arrived at 10 am (we waited for almost 2 hours haha), we filled up a form then we leave our dog to them and be neutered. He said that they will just texted us if it is done so went back home.

After almost an hour, they texted back and said that it is already done. So we rush to the clinic and get our dog. The doctor said that they only found one of our dog's balls, and it was the first time he encountered it. I trust him because he is the one who is expert in that field. They gave us medicines for anti-bacterial and others.

Sharing you some of pictures of him and his ball, haha.

There are lot of reasons why we considered our dog to be neutered. Here are those:

1. To prevent unplanned puppies

We are afraid that he will impregnate our 3 other female dogs when he is in heat. If that happens, they will have an unplanned litter and finding their a good home can be very difficult. But, we already planning to spayed our female dogs, so our worries will be lessen.

2. Reduction of certain health risks.

Experts said that neutering a male dog prevents testicular cancer and reduces the risk of other problems, such as prostate disease. A neutered male dog might also have less desire to roam.

Spaying vs. neutering

Spaying is the removal of the female pet’s reproductive organs, while neutering refers to the procedure for male pets. When a female dog is spayed, the vet removes her ovaries and usually her uterus as well.

When neutering a dog, both testicles and their associated structures are removed. Neutering renders a male pet unable to reproduce.

3. It will allow them to live longer

As stated in number 2, it reduces risks of other problem. We always put our mind that prevention is better than cure. Also,we want our loved ones to live longer, so it should be the same with our pets, because they already part of our family.

4. May help behavioral issues like aggressiveness

Our dog is a little bit aggressive, and we are afraid that he might bite someone else if where not around.

Be a responsible owner by spaying and neutering your pets. It is affordable so you should also think about it.
