By not snipping them, you put the possibility of "accidental breeding" within reach, not to mention that dog balls are gross to look at!

Better to snip and remove all risk of more unwanted animals. I did some research on pet euthanasia statistics in the US while I was in college, and the numbers are staggering enough that if you had been exposed to the same stuff I was, there would be no question as to whether to spay and neuter...

Taylor has a Boxer, as do I... I don't think snipping mine made him grow to a smaller size, btw.

Oh and my Choco Lab is 110 Lbs. Not an ounce of fat either. Funniest thing is when he feels he is getting a bit "chunky" he reduces his food intake! Has ANYONE ever heard of a Lab doing this?!?! UNBELEIVABLE!

We were looking to get a yellow lab puppy earlier this summer . . . ended up buying a black S2K instead. Will probably renew the puppy quest next year. Would be curious to know what members are doing about letting the dogs ride in the S2K. I was raised in the children-and-dogs-in-the-back-seat-only school. Still not comfortable with the thought of letting a dog ride "up front", both for the driver's and the dog's safety. Any thoughts?

I have a friend with a male yellow Lab that was snipped at 6 mos old and he's, are you ready for this, 134 lbs! That's all I got to say...
