Comments (0) I just received this in an email from the ASPCA. I was very disappointed when I heard that the Supreme Court had overturned the law banning animal cruelty videos. However, it is encouraging that we have a second chance to end this barbaric way of making money.

Fοr those οf υѕ wһο Ɩονе running аחԁ Ɩονе dogs, running wіtһ ουr dogs іѕ a normal combination οf tһе two.

Many pet owners won’t neuter their male dogs. Some transfer their emotions about the procedure onto their dogs, and decide that it’s a cruel and inhumane act. But most avoid neutering their dogs because they’ve heard one or more of the many misconceptions about neutering. Despite all these rumors and myths, neutering is a responsible procedure that won’t harm the health of your dog. Here are some of the misconceptions that keep many from having their dogs neutered.
Your dog will not become depressed for lack of sex. Dogs aren’t humans, and don’t feel the same way about sex that humans do. They won’t miss the intimacy or the romance, like some people believe. As much as some people seem to think otherwise, dogs are animals, and their drive for sex is only instinct. Not having sex will not harm, or depress, your dog.
Your dog will not become weak or effeminate. Neutering does not affect a dog’s physical abilities or strength. In fact, neutering removes the sexual instinct that has some dogs climbing the walls. Neutering can correct many behavioral problems caused by the sex instinct in some dogs, especially in households with one or more pets and in a household with female dogs.
Your dog won’t get fat or stop being active: If you don’t overfeed your dog and neglect to take him for walks, your dog can’t suddenly bloat up after being neutered. This is a popular misconception because it does happen sometimes—but it’s not because of the surgery, but rather the habits of the owner. Just be sure to feed your dog the proper amount of food, and make sure he gets plenty of exercise.
Your dog will still bark at strangers, if it does now. The belief that a neutered dog will no longer make a good guard dog is ridiculous. It’s a clear case of humans passing off misguided beliefs about masculinity and strength onto dogs. If the dog happened to be born sterile, would that make it less a dog, or less suited to be a watch dog?
Some people think that routine castration of male dogs is unnecessary. Here are some reasons why we think neutering your dog is the best option:
