    I had a male Great Dane that lived for 15 years, he was fully intact and also was on healthy wholesome food, fresh meat, organs. He was healthy as a horse and happy. He was also never over vaxed either. He peacefully passed away from an old age.. ❤

    So few talk about this subject. An old school Vet once told me, he only sees joint problems in neutered dogs, not in the intact ones. There are Vets that do vascectomies and tube ligation for sterilization that leaves hormones intact for health benefits.

    My dog was neutered at 6 months old, he was my first dog the vet said I had to, he's now 14 but after being neutered he then had dog aggression and really bad flank alopecia. After reading up about the alopecia it's all linked to hormones. I will never get another dog spayed or neutered unless absolutely necessary

      My lab blew his knee out at fifteen months old, and I fixed him at six months.My malamu is Intact and people are trying to pressure me into fixing him because they stupidly think his aggression will magically be fifth solved.But the thing is, he's terrified of everything, so I'm supposed to take away the hormone that gives him confidence.No thanks

    My vet told me my dog has one testicle. She also said if I didn't neuter him it could cause a tumor. To this day he hasn't been neutered. He's fine.

    Hysterectomy and Vasectomy are the new advances for traditional spaying and neutering.
    Both of you are the best vets in the world.
    Lots of regards from India 🇮🇳

      Oh, I do so wholeheartedly agree with you. I don’t allow them for my dog or myself, unless strictly necessary and there’s no alternative. But it’s a quiet, but ongoing argument that I’m so often involved in!

    I have a cockapoo who is not neutered. He is now 2 years old. He doesn't hump, has a calm temperament, and does not show any kind of aggression towards other dogs. Everytime we go to the dog park, it is the neutered ones who keeps bullying him and pushing his boundaries like trying to hump him, bark at him or sometimes these dogs assert their dominance by pushing him or even trying to put him in a submissive position. Most of the time he would correct the young ones (puppies) and setting his boundaries by barking at the big ones who would try him but won't hurt them in any way. His most concern at the dog park is to play ball with me and even shares the ball with the other dogs trying to get them to play. But some of these neutered ones who bullies him are becoming annoying now and it goes to show neutering won't really solve any kind of behavioral issues of some dogs.

    My dog just turned 3 years old and despite the ire of my veterinarians, I am not going to have him neutered-- He is healthy, lean and beautiful and no behavior "problems". Intact male and female dogs, statistically speaking, have better longevity, maintain a normal weight and are less prone to endocrine problems.

    I have two 6 month old female basset hounds and I am concerned about when to spay them. I found a vet about 3 hours from my home that does the ovary sparing spaying. I know it’s a far trip but I think they will benefit more from the correct spaying then them being in the car that long. At what age is spaying them like this is best? Should I wait till after their first heat? Thanks so much. ❤

    Thank you so much for all you do. Can you please address how best to supplement and take care of cruciate ligament problems.
    We got our four year old dog when she was only nine weeks old and had already been spayed from the humane society.
    She had her first knee surgery at 2 years, we have been trying to keep her from getting the other one. Because it was so invasive and difficult for her.
    She weighs about 70 pounds. And I've had the worst time trying to get weight off of her. When I feed her fresh food at two percent of her ideal body weight about sixty pounds, she seems to not lose weight and possibly gain. Please help in any way possible

    @drjudy- My female dog has a Tubal ligation and she is two year old. She just went into heat Oct 1 and now a month later took her to the vet because of vomiting/lethargy. It was diagnosed as an enlarged ovary and they are recommending full spaying. I want what is best for my baby. I can pay this as a consultation or if you can guide me to the right person or source..
    Her breed is a mix (Totton de tulear with toy poodle)
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Please help!! My 15 month Yorkie is scheduled to be neutered 10/10. Only because one of his testicles didn’t drop, the one that didn’t drop moves into the penis part causing him pain, along with dam stick fleas, and a bunch of scabs on his body, vets are what you say they don’t give a diagnosis they assume an give medication, watching you an other videos I come to conclusion that when this started I took him to get dipped , they put the one on his back I said not working they dipped him within a few months time , I had no idea this was so bad for him till I seen him get sick, his immune system is very low. He’s only 5 pounds. I’m at a loss. I don’t know what to do.

    My Vet tried to talk me into having my male Dog neutered at six months of age. I made the appointment but then cancelled it as I wasn't happy and didn't feel that I was doing the right thing. I eventually had him neutered at twelve months. I wish I'd known then what I know now and had done more research. I hate myself every day because of the potential health issues I may have caused my Pet.

    I'm sorry I know you are a busy lady , I have watched many of your videos and have a great deal of respect for your opinions. I have a 14 month old Morkie who went through cycle starting the end of Feb. was tough hard to get her interested in food but made it through, now here we are in May and she just has no interest in food, I took her to our Vet and she did many test and Blood work all came back fine, she believes what my pup is going through is faults pregnancy. This concerns me from what I read this will only get worst with more cycles. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have, just looks like having her spayed may be my only option. Thank You for your time.
