Hahah penny you subconcious is telling you that neutering is good...

I have a male MS and a female MS living together, both intact. And the MS group already knows how much trouble (and money on pampers) that I go through every six months. I am thinking of spaying/neutering both for health reasons but the fact that i have to knock them temporarily with anesthetics puts me off.

Why?

Because of this...


Now this is CRUEL (ear cropping). When I first got my MS, a showbreeder adviced me to crop his ears, and I blindly/idiotically/gullibly did. Unlike spaying/neutering this is a totally unnecessary procedure akin to cosmetic surgery I hate myself to this day for doing it.
And right after the operation, you could see my poor boy shivering, yet he won't respond when you call or pat him as he is still hasn't woken up. It is a heart wrenching sight, and after that regular vet visits are needed to clean to sutures & change the bandages

If anything, always get a second opinion on everything - the showbreeder has her reasons and I don't blame her. I blame myself for not being knowledgeable enough, hence i repeatedly ask ppl not to impose human feelings/wants on their furkids.

Also, if your precious furkids were to 'suffer' an operation and you have to be 'cruel' once only in their lifetime, please let it be a neutering/spaying procedure.

A stray shih tzu? Well, that should tell that to qiqio as she has never seen a stray a.k.a. unwanted shih tzu before.
