where i live, there is no need, k?
we plan on getting them fixed, but we dont have almost $500+ to fix both of them...
but right now we dont worry about it cause any dog that can get close enough to our dogs [male wise] is either fixed, or small enough to seriously understand what kind of power a electric fence for horses feels like... lol
either way, the vet had no reason to tell her [other than it being his clinic] that he wouldnt treat her dog unless she got the dog fixed...
