-- Posted by heatherette at 5:24 am on Nov. 21, 2008 For the most part, and I say that because there are a few that def the norm and are extremely well behave, are out of control. Im standing outside the room of an unaltered yellow Lab named Duke(how unique) and he is barking and spitting drool nd hopping up and down like there's no tomorrow.   When we let him out of his room, he runs around and pisses and drools and more stuff, ugh. I don't understand why people just don't get their pets fixed...I mean, unless you have (good)intentions to breed, a little alteration of the animals sex organs is all that need be to help that god awful behavior, plus training and what not, but training will be easier if you cut their damn balls off, people! -- Posted by Catacomb at 5:30 am on Nov. 21, 2008 thats why dogs are mans best friend -- Posted by Catacomb at 5:32 am on Nov. 21, 2008 having said that, sure, go ahead, castrate my friend better his balls than mine -- Posted by Spice at 5:38 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Our Border Collie was intact. My mum had one when they were little and got it done -- became aggresive. Our dog was one of the most well mannered dogs I've met. And I trained him =] He did like humping stuff though, Plus, he was from working stock. I was told when I was younger a collie from working stock rather than pet stock is better behaved and more responsive to its owner. -- Posted by RachLeigh13 at 5:41 am on Nov. 21, 2008 I know, its totally annoying when men are like "Hell no I'm not cuttin my dogs  balls off!" They think its some horrible procedure, but really, it's not. It's better for them in the long run. I haven't had a male dog in a long time. We mainly get females for some reason. I think its because mom doesn't like them to cock their legs and pee on her plants, hahahahha. -- Posted by Spice at 5:42 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from RachLeigh13 at 1:41 pm on Nov. 21, 2008 I know, its totally annoying when men are like "Hell no I'm not cuttin my dogs balls off!"

Though I can no longer remember what I originally thought. -- Posted by RachLeigh13 at 5:45 am on Nov. 21, 2008 I've seen glances of one, but its not a major procedure, at least compared to females being spayed. -- Posted by heatherette at 6:05 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from UnusualOne at 8:38 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Our Border Collie was intact.

He got aggressed after he was fixed? -- Posted by Spice at 6:09 am on Nov. 21, 2008 My mothers when she was younger, yeah. He was called Radar. -- Posted by cum funnel at 7:03 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Agreed. Though, my next dog won't be speutered. And I want a male. But that's for show purposes, and unlike most of those other people, I've actually worked with unneutered males. Beth, you're right about the Border Collie stock. A lot of BC owners on the working stock side will agree with you. Show stock BC's now are bred with tiny heads, longer coats, varying builds. A lot of them have no work drive because so much of their instinct is bred out. Definitely one of those breeds you have to search high, low, and everywhere in between when you're buying one, to be sure you're getting what is right for you.
