Why are Doberman Rescue dogs required to be spayed or neutered?
Purebred Dog Rescue of St. Louis, our parent club, requires all dogs placed through us to be spayed or neutered because there is a surplus of all dogs, purebred as well a mixed-breed. Dobermans are an especially popular breed, resulting in many homeless Dobermans. Too many purebred dogs, as well as mixed-breed, are put to death every year simply because there are no homes for them. Many purebred dogs give birth to or sire mixed-breed dogs. By spaying (female dogs) and neutering (male dogs) we keep the surplus population of pets down. Too many people believe that just because a dog is purebred that it should be bred. We emphatically disagree!!
