Thanks so much Patricia for your reply! It is hopeful to hear your first hand
experience. Our "Chico" is a mush love bug too! I can't remember when
snuggling up so close felt so good. Thanks again!

Our 2, almost 3 year old male is not neutered and he is the
biggest mush love bug. We did mate him with our female and his personality
didnt change a bit. We actually kept two of the puppies and he is a great
daddy. But, we never let him run loose. We are planning to get him neutered
in the near future but only because we dont want our females getting pregnant
and I figure that neutering is less invasive and cheaper than having the girls
spayed. We were a little late on that about 57 days ago and Trinity is due
next week. Sounds like you have a great dog what ever you decide. Good luck.

Thanks, I didn't know about the prostate cancer. I realize the
plight of animals in shelters - however, I am considering breeding him to
produce other pets for my friend and myself. Her dog is 5 years old. I
wouldn't think of studding him out - which is incidently was his original name
was! We renamed him "Chico".
He is does not meet the "standard" - he weighs 8 lbs, he has an underbite,
he is a tri-color, marked beautifully and just so sweet. We choose him with
great care as to how our other animals would accept him - both 11 year old
fixed females - a springer spaniel mix at an indoor cat.
I guess what I wanted to hear (which I realize I may not get) is from
someone who keeps unaltered males as pets and what they see as far as changes.
