I got Hamish a vasectomy when the pick of litter looked to be thriving. He was almost 8. It wouldn't be fit for her father to cover her. The whole deal was enough of a fiasco/brouhaha that I didn't want to go through it again, no matter how fine the dam. I don't approve of incest. So I got him a vasectomy. The vet blinked, but understood; and agreed. "It would just make him fat and sleepy." was what he said. So I got a certificate of neutering. He could fire blanks. Not that he did.
When the boy was 10, I found a growth on his chin, and one on his anus. They were of different natures. At that point the same vet who agreed about vasectomy said "I think his testosterone may be a problem." So he got his growths removed and his testes sucked out.
I got another Certificate of Neutering.
So, the dog got neutered twice, and lived another 4 yrs.
Rose, the pick of litter, watches over my good ex-boyfriend, and is having hip problems. Things are are never simple.
