And if there is any additional advice on whether they should be spayed/neutered or not, plz tell me.Why is it so important that dogs be neutered and spayed? What if I want my dogs to have puppies?

spayed and neutered means that they are removed of their sexual organs like the uterus and the testicles. spay is for girls and neuter is for boys. i suggest spay and neuter if you are not going to breed them.

Spayed - a female who CANNOT have puppiesNot Spayed - a female who CAN have puppiesNeutered - a Male who cannot make puppiesNot Neutered - a male who CAN make puppiesSpay and Neuter is best.

spayed means that your female dog has been "fixed" to where she cant have puppies...they take all her goodies out. and neutered means that a male dog has been "fixed" and he cant get a female pregnant...they go in and cut a tube or something like that. and all dogs should be fixed!

When you spay a female you remove her reproductive organs so she can not have puppies.You should spay and neuter your pets so you don't add to the pet overpopulation. Neutering a male eliminates the possibility of testicular tumors and greatly reduces the chance of prostate problems. Neutering decreases the incidence of perianal tumors and hernias, which are commonly observed in older, unaltered males. Neutered males are less likely to try to escape a yard to find a female in season. This reduces the likelihood of them being hit by cars, getting into fights or lost. (Neutering is no substitute for a securely fenced yard, however).Females spayed before their first estrous cycle ("heat") greatly reduces her chance of mammary tumors, ovarian cancer and uterine infection (all of which can be fatal and costly to treat). A spayed female eliminates the neighborhood stray males from camping out on your lawn trying to get at your female when she comes into "heat." Giving birth to a litter can be dangerous to your female. Some breeds have a high rate of cesarean sections, which are expensive and can be risky.Temperament:Spaying and neutering before sexual maturity also offers a temperament benefit. Males neutered early in life tend to be less aggressive and less distracted. Neutered males are less likely to scent mark (real problem when they decide to mark inside the house). A spayed female also does not hormonally based swings and will be more focused on you as well. A female with a litter can become very aggressive, even to family members. Spaying also makes your female a better companion. However, altering a pet is NOT a substitute or a cureall for behavioral issues. It may only affect those hormonally related.

A spayed dog is a female dog that's been surgically sterilized.A neutered dog is a male dog who's had his testicles surgically removed.It's smarter to spay and neuter your pets (cats and rabbits, too) because there's an animal overpopulation crisis. Pounds and shelters are overflowing with cats and dogs who need loving homes, but most of them are killed because they've been in the shelter too long (a few months).If you want a puppy, just adopt one. It's easier, and it's saving lives.

hi,Spaying or neutering will keep your dog from getting pregnant or impregnating another dog. Females get the spay surgery, which removes the ovaries and uterus, while a neuter surgery removes a male dog's testicles.here are some guidelines:http://dogtime.com/spay-neuter.htmlhope this helps.
