Again, where is it written that a dog should be deprived of "Being a Dog" and 
all that that implies just to make OUR LIVES easier??? Why is it that women 
are so quick to emasculate their male dogs on the excuse that it "makes their 
lives easier?? Easier for who??? The dogs, who were born to be dogs, and live 
life to its fullest, and were not born to be play dolls, or their human 
owners who do this to them ONLY because they can???
