Neither am I. I am honestly interested in hearing what you mean by this
statement. And there are many ways a dog's life is enhanced by being fixed.
It cuts down on reproductive cancers. Animals that are fixed generally live
longer and healthier lives. And they tend to stick closer to home which cuts
down on the chances of their ending up as a road pizza.
