Spaying and neutering your pet has several advantages:
- Reduces and even eliminates "marking" behavior
- Reduces or eliminates risks of some cancers and health problems
- Eliminates risk of accidental litters
- No worries of your female bleeding on your rugs or brand new couch!
- Can help to decrease or avoid some types of aggression
- Training will be easier as the dog will focus more readily on you.
- Dog will not roam in search of a mate.
- Dog will be less likely to whine/bark/howl or become a nuisance when a female in in season.
- Can help to reduce or eliminate "humping" behavior that you and your guests may find unflattering!
There are low cost options available, and I have them listed here. I will update this list periodically, to keep it as up to date as possible.
