Comment on Why do we castrate animals instead of giving them vasectomies?

  I know plenty of neutered dogs that still do that.

    It’s a hardwired dominance thing. Once had a buddy come over and our one male terrier mix dog who had never jumped anything before grabbed a stuffed animal that belonged to a relatives kid, dragged it over and went to town on it in front of us. It was funny and weird.

    Even female dogs can sometimes show the behavior to assert dominance.

    Dogs are weird.

    Your knowledge of neutered dogs who do not follow the desired behavior pattern is really cool! I have some knowledge about neutered dogs who did experience the expected and desired changes in behavior. Cool!
