castration and sterilization for male and female sterilization
Definition: (sterilization) by banning the ducts of the sex glands. The dogs are "sterile", ie, they are no longer capable of reproduction. In the male: severing the vas deferens. In the bitch: cutting through the fallopian tubes. The sterilization only stops the reproduction, otherwise nothing changes. The bitch is still in heat, the dog still has sex drive.
definition castration: castration comes from the Latin (castratus) and is called "castration". The switching off the gonads (testes and ovaries) by surgical removal. In the male: surgical removal of both testicles and scrotum, the skin is sutured. In the dog: surgical removal of the ovaries, and sometimes additional removal of the uterus (hysterectomy).
castration is a topic that you as a dog owner and me as a dog trainer and therapist accompanied at all times. Sufficient opportunity to focus on the sense and nonsense of this measure thoroughly worrying. One topic that raises many questions.
About the question on which I came here the most. What is the cause of the delusion at castration dog owners? What I find most surprising is that animal rights activists who are upset (rightly) terrible about that dog ears and tail to be docked, just those who are having a dog can not quickly castrate enough (Or take a bitch all the reproductive organs.) Also Vets castrate often quite uncritically and without sufficient educate - as a panacea.
When doing this, my question - in all places expressed appropriate care and education - whether it is really to serve the animal, or whether we should not think as a human, that some things are the way they are and always were. This for me is the sex drive is one with all its implications. Certainly pubescent adolescents were less problems if you would be neutered at twelve, girls would never have breast cancer, this would remove prophylactically. What a world. - Of all the crimes of love, sexual jealousy and are motivated, not to mention.
The last few years, the call for the "Perfect" dog ever louder. This is then defined as follows: it is to cope with any other dog, which is then interpreted as a good social behavior. He will not bark and threaten anyone, if we do not want. There are always more people who have their dog as a social partner and will always want to take everywhere, of course, be no one Kommentkämpfen or serious clashes exposed to same-sex dogs. Previously was a good dog that did not show precisely this behavior! Of its people and their homes protected snarling, visitor logs and other predators away from the court held. It was perfectly normal to expect not just that a dog with any same-sex clearly has to come. This is all not so long ago! Was in a rural area is a different dog, he was not a 'good' dog.
So some ordinary dog behavior is classified as a hormone-controlled - especially in males. But if a male uncastrated not get along with his fellow males that does not want him neutered would cope better. The same applies to the territorial and aggressive, dominant or otherwise troubled dog.
dog owners on the other hand leads Katsrationsgründe such as: cleanliness (females), ranking problems, stray dogs and other behavioral problems, Aufreiter (to humans and other dogs), Essentially change during the heat of the males and females and in particular health problems.
Many bad habits and loutish, the un-neutered dogs are not put in the day, hormonal nature, but a result of false or no education, employment, attention, loyalty and hierarchy. I have not experienced castration, an educational or hierarchy problem would have ever solved. Rather, the opposite was the case when a dog was neutered because of behavioral problems to the family, the condition has deteriorated even most of the debate.
neutering for behavior-related causes in males is only useful if the problem behavior clearly hormone-driven nature is. Some males show as hyper sexual behavior. These dogs might think they would all 'happy' which is not at three in the tree. They get even with females in heat have not completely over the moon. Sometimes you can get the hormonal balance through homeopathic doses well back into balance. Such dogs can feel every same-sex conspecifics as a strong competitor and therefore resistant to react.
Even if a male ausbüchst notoriously when females are in heat, can be useful to a castration.
males who suffer greatly from heartache, can sometimes be helped well naturopathy. Females to the very pseudopregnancy and thereby tend to go through any more severe personality changes and then, for example, very aggressive response to conspecific (s) or people, a castration or sterilization often provide relief for both sides. Similarly, when clearly the case of multiple dog ownership is that you do not have babies and a uncastrated male is present, this action is recommended.
Then there are health problems that neutering makes sense, if not render it inevitable, such as testicular tumors, breast tumors, pyometra, prostate problems, Kryptochismus (testicle remains in the bar), etc.
over the optimum time for neutering there are contradictory statements. From my experience I can recommend the following.
The height growth of the dog should be completed. Depending on the breed and dog such as between 8 and 12 Month. A bitch must have had not only the way puppies to castrate them. An adult males from three years ago, I would castrate without health reasons not because I have never seen that castration brings from that time have significant behavioral change with it - except to negative.
following advantages and disadvantages of an intervention:
female:
benefits
no heat
no false pregnancies
lower risk for:
vaginal tumors, breast cancer, uterine cancer, uterine suppuration
Disadvantages:
fur changes possible increased
risk of OP
risk:
incontinence, obesity, heart tumors, Harnleitertumore, connective tissue, thyroid hypofunction
male:
benefits
Can prevent to prevent the male dominance in their own species or reduce stray and sexually oriented.
lower risk for:
leukemia, testicular cancer, anal fissures, prostate problems
disadvantages
risk of OP
skin changes
possible increased risk for:
obesity, prostate cancer, ureteral cancer, diabetes, bone cancer, thyroid hypofunction
Other: The pros and cons of castration must be weighed with care. In the male does the castration of often different, neutered sooner, the greater the impact.
Castrated dogs burn their food better, they inevitably eat more. The possible increase is to meet with strict food rationing or conversion. Neutering before sexual maturity, a delay of epiphyseal physeal closure result. The mighty bones grow particularly in the Neuter longer than in intact animals - by the "eunuchoidal tallness" such animals are often larger than their peers. Castrated animals have statistically a higher life expectancy of about one year as compared to castrated!
If you are in doubt whether testosterone affects the behavior of your dog can be a chemical castration provide security. If your dog's behavior improve, a surgical castration should be considered. Talk to your veterinarian.
homeopathy and naturopathy offers for males are testosterone-plagued some very successful alternatives. Talk to your classical homeopath or animal experienced veterinary practitioners.
