Why NOT neuter?
Posted to: Health & Grooming
Has anyone NOT neutered/spayed their dogs? If so why? My dog is 1 year old and is not neutered. I've seen enough arguments to WHY TO to it, I need to see WHY NOT. P.S. That's besides the fact that you want to show or breed your dogs.

Begging and food stealing
Posted to: Nutrition & Exercise
Winnie has become a little porker - an annoying little porker. For one, she's about 2 lbs overweight, which we're trying to deal with by increased exercise and a switch from Innova puppy to Innova adult. She's become a little beggar, which surprises me because aside from carrots and ice...
