Thread: Neutered vs entire males

It may just be my experience but in the last couple of weeks I have had 3 different neutered males get stroppy/staunch with my 22 month old entire male. Have any of you come across this problem and can you explain why it happens?

In each situation he wasn't paying any attention to the other dog and each time I have stood in front of my dog and told the other dog to back off. Possibly not the wisest thing to have done but on each occasion the other dog backed down.

I have had differing reactions from owners - one lot did absolutely nothing, the other was surprised as the two dogs had been OK together when Steel was a few months younger, the last one was very embarrassed and apologised. He couldn't figure out why his dog was behaving that way.

I've always found it the other way around. Nutted dogs I've always found more chilled out and less likely to get agro

What is 'stroppy'? Try to notice the age too - were the others around the same age as your boy?

mmm thats what I thought also -no nuts more chilled and other dogs with nuts are more chilled to them -could be wrong .
No nuts less stink y piss also ???

Sorry I don't own either but.....testicles have nothing to do with urine or digestion? So unless your entire male is ejaculating when he is urinating..............?????

I prefer males, all have been entire, never an issue?

Certainly never an issue with neutered males approaching my dogs?

Hf1 , I'm clutching at staws really , but my dog got picked on quite a bit at his age . Now he's matured doesn't happen now . Now don't no or remember if the attackers where entire or not . Dogs don't need balls to fight , especially if they been removed later in life .
