Yes, spaying and neutering is definately the Responsible thing to do. I have 5 dogs, 4 of which are fixed. The 5th one will be too, soon enough.
Of all dog breeds, the Pit Bull is my favorite breed. My heart, especially, goes out to that particular breed. Once they were considered America's Breed of Choice or America's Family Dog. Numerous Famous people have and do own Pit Bulls from Roosevelt to Helen Keller to Michael J Fox.
Seargeant Stubby was America's First Decorated K-9 war hero...
Sgt. Stubby and then there have been many more to follow Sgt. Stubby's heroism. Pit Bulls are misunderstood. They are extremely loyal, naturally human friendly, powerful, intellegent, and determined to make their owners happy.
It's very unfortunate that the irresponsible dog owners along with the biasedness from news outlets that the Pit Bulls as a whole may never recover from the black eyes they were given. Very sad, indeed
I really wished our lawmakers would have more severe penalties for people involved with cruelty to animals. It seems as if the punishments are minimal. I'm a two year member to the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) and hopefully for many more years.
