My dog has been biting a lot recently, so I'm considering getting him neutered. The problem is, our vet tells me that he doesn't suggest neutering - What should I do?
Hi Jonathennes, hope you are doing great.
Of course, it's often a good idea to spay and neuter pets. In addition to helping to fight pet overpopulation, spaying and neutering provide significant advantages for both pet and owner. In males, neutering tends to reduce roaming, marking, and some types of aggression. In females, spaying protects them from serious reproductive tract cancers and infections. (Spaying before the first heat cycle virtually eliminates the risk of mammary cancer.) Spayed and neutered animals are easier to live with and less expensive, too, without veterinary costs for roaming- or certain aggression-related injuries and reproductive-related cancers and infections.
That said, I have a cure for bad behavior in pets that aren't spayed or neutered: training. Even an unneutered dog can be trained to walk without pulling on the leash and to come when called. The world is full of temptations, and one way to control them is through training. There are many dog trainers available in every country. So get an appointment and get rid of the problem.
Thanks, with best regards
