Disadvantages of Corgi sterilization

1. Neutering triples the chance of dog obesity. Being overweight is prone to arthritis, heart disease, pancreatitis, and diabetes. After a dog is neutered, if the owner continues to feed it the same amount of food as before neutering, the dog will easily gain weight. This is because neutered dogs undergo changes in their hormonal metabolism and therefore no longer need as much food. 2. Sterilization increases the risk of hemangioma. Hemangioma commonly occurs in the heart and spleen. Neutered dogs are twice as likely to develop splenic hemangioma and four times more likely to develop cardiac hemangioma than non-neutered dogs. 3. Sterilization triples the chance of developing hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism can cause obesity, lethargy, and hair loss, but these symptoms can be controlled with daily thyroid medication. 4. Sterilization increases the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Apparently reproductive hormones also protect the brain to a certain extent. 5. Sterilization surgery is risky. Twenty percent of sterilization surgeries are associated with at least one complication, such as adverse anesthetic reactions, internal bleeding, inflammation or infection, abscesses, incomplete sutures, etc. Fortunately, most complications are not serious, less than five percent are life-threatening, but the mortality rate is very low, less than one percent.

Benefits of corgi neutering

1. If the dog is neutered before two and a half years old, the risk of breast tumors, uterine tumors, cervical tumors and breast tumors can be significantly reduced. It can also reduce the risk of cancer and prevent excessive fertility from accelerating the aging of body organs.
2. Neutering can dilute a dog’s territorial awareness and improve its aggression. Of course, if the dog itself has a bold and stubborn temperament, or does not have enough basic exercise, or has not been trained for normal social interaction, neutering alone cannot fundamentally solve the problem. 3. Neutering can reduce the risk of being attacked by other male dogs. Even if your dog is naturally docile and good-tempered, unneutered female dogs are more likely to be targeted by other male dogs. 4. Neutering can help shift the dog’s attention from other dogs to the owner. Unneutered dogs spend a lot of energy paying attention to other dogs. Neutering and proper training can greatly improve this, allowing the dog to focus more on its owner, and its obedience will naturally improve. 5. Neutering can reduce mating behavior. The mating behavior here not only refers to actual mating, but also refers to dogs versus toys. Neutering combined with owner education can reduce and avoid this indecent behavior. 6. Neutering can prevent female dogs from being overly excited when around male dogs. Female dogs will become extremely agitated when near a male dog, especially a female dog in heat.

The sterilization of a female Corgi involves the complete removal of the uterus

The sterilization of a dog involves the removal of the ovaries and part of the uterus. Because the uterus is connected to the vagina, it is Strictly speaking, it is impossible to remove the entire uterusFor removal, the general surgery is to remove the ovaries and the part above the cervix.
First of all, before the sterilization operation, blood is drawn, and then preoperative examination is performed. The preoperative examination is routine blood test and liver and kidney function. Blood coagulation, electrolytes, and sweet shrimps do not require a chest X-ray if there are no respiratory problems. It is basically the same as a pre-operative examination.
To prepare for the operation, the first step is to inject an indwelling needle and provide general gas anesthesia. The entire operation takes about two hours, including waking up. Five stitches were stitched into the abdominal wound, which was approximately 5-6cm.
After the operation, saline water was first administered. After being kept in the hospital for observation for half an hour and no symptoms appeared, the patient could go home.
