Neutering Tips For Your Pet
Neutering comes under the heading of elective surgery literally, surgery that you choose to have done even though it is not necessitated by any direct health problem. Neutering, or castrating, the male dog involves the surgical removal of both testes from the scrotum. It is a simple procedure and presents few problems. It’s done in the veterinary hospital under general anesthetic and the dog can usually go home the next day. Most Veterinarians advise that the male dog should be neutered at the age of one year, although it is possible to neuter a Healthy Dog at any age. Male dogs that are not neutered sometimes have a tendency to roam, and may develop socially unacceptable habits such as “mounting” objects or people (that is, assuming the posture for mating), urinating on the furniture, or being very aggressive toward other male dogs. Neutering usually reduces or eliminates these bad habits. It’s not true that neutered dogs become fat, lazy, and unresponsive. Dogs get fat and lazy because they’re over-fed and under exercised, and an unresponsive dog is usually indicating that his owner is not giving him much incentive to respond.
The female dog’s reproductive cycle—also known as the estrous or heat cycle-usually begins when she’s about eight months old when she comes into heat for the first time. (Note that giant breeds tend to come into heat later. The cycle should begin before the dog is a year old. but sometimes doesn’t start until 15 months.) There are exceptions, but most bitches come into heat every six months. The normal heat or estrous cycle lasts about three weeks. and only in the second week is the bitch capable of conceiving. The first sign that the bitch is in heat is a swelling of the external genitalia (vulva), accompanied by slight bleeding from the vulva. If your dog leads an active social life, you’ll notice that every male dog in the neighborhood is suddenly showing up to visit. In fact, since most bitches are very fastidious about cleaning themselves when they’re in heat, you may realize that your dog suddenly is surrounded by suitors before you notice the physical signs. If you plan to breed the bitch, it’s advisable to wait.
