What does it mean to get my male dog neuetrated2007-11-25 2:52:10Answers:

For males, neutering is castration, or the surgical removal of the testicles. This prevents them from being able to make babies.

Well you got it almost right. In males and females dog and cats it is a surgical operation to rend them sterile. so they can not reproduce any off spring.

Bluntly, it means to have him castrated so that he can't sire any puppies.

Your male will then be unable to reproduce. It's quite simple procedure, usually overnite due to anesthetic; small slice below the testicals; which will be taken out. Not only are helping w/pet over population, you will find your dog will have a easier temperment, as he won't be thinking of females. Along w/long term health benefits of neutered males.

The dog neuter surgery, and spaying and neutering of dogs or cats in general DOES NOT "make a pet fat and lazy". In a healthy dog or cat, free of hypothyroidism or other medical disorders, overfeeding and insufficient exercise are the sole causes of a pet being overweight. Don't blame the dog or cat spay or neuter surgery if a pet becomes overweight.

The dog neuter surgical procedure is performed under general anesthesia and employs sterile instruments and a sterile surgical field. Medical emergencies can arise if a pet becomes infected during these procedures. No surgeon approaches a spay or neuter as if it were "routine" because each surgery is different from every other because each pet is different, and although neutering might be deemed a minor surgery, a spay certainly qualifies as a major procedure.
