Consequences of not neutering or breeding Teddy Bears
Not neutering or breeding Teddy Bears may increase the risk of them getting lost and developing reproductive system diseases. Female dogs are prone to uterine pyometra, while male dogs may suffer from prostatitis and other diseases. Therefore, it is recommended that owners who do not breed their dogs wait until their first heat cycle ends and then undergo a sterilization procedure. This can not only alleviate the inconvenience caused by the dog's heat cycle but also prolong their lifespan and reduce the risk of reproductive tract infections.
- Increased risk of getting lost
If Teddy Bears are not neutered or bred, their heat frequency will gradually increase. They may run out of the house accidentally, especially male Teddy Bears, who are more likely to get lost. In extreme cases, they may even fight with other male dogs over mating rights. Moreover, confining the dog to the house to prevent it from running out may make it aggressive, leading to constant barking or destructive behavior.
- Increased likelihood of reproductive system diseases
Whether male or female Teddy Bears, if they are not sterilized or bred for several years, they will inevitably develop a series of diseases. Common diseases in male dogs include prostate enlargement and testicular tumors, while female dogs are prone to uterine pyometra, endometritis, mammary tumors, and pseudo-pregnancy. To avoid these diseases, it is recommended that owners sterilize their Teddy Bears!
