Remember no one is arguing the need for sterilization, it's the surgical technique that should be reevaluated. Hysterectomy and vasectomy achieve the same goal but leave important hormones intact according to science.

"The association between gonadectomy and timing of gonadectomy, and the risk of canine cranial cruciate ligament disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract
Objective - To determine if gonadectomy in dogs is associated with the risk of cranial cruciate ligament disease (CrCLD) and to quantify the magnitude of the association.

Study design - Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Sample population - Comparative studies with gonadectomized and entire dogs, with CrCLD as an outcome measure.

Methods - A systematic search of the primary and gray literature was performed. The effect size of the outcome measure was defined as the OR and 95% CI. Subgroup analysis was performed with s*x, breed, and age at gonadectomy. A pooled OR (95% CI) was generated from meta-analysis of relevant studies. Certainty in the body of evidence was rated with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework.

Results - The literature search yielded 1398 results and 24 relevant studies were included for synthesis. Gonadectomized female (pooled OR = 2.293, 95% CI = 1.768–2.945) and male (pooled OR = 2.117, 95% CI = 1.665–2.691) dogs were both at increased odds of developing CrCLD in comparison with entire female and male dogs, respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that gonadectomy at 1 year or less was consistently associated with an increase in odds of developing CrCLD in both s*xes. Overall certainty in the evidence was rated as moderate. All included studies were observational and no controlled trials were available.

Conclusion - In data with moderate certainty, gonadectomy is associated with increased odds of developing CrCLD in both s*xes, particularly in dogs gonadectomized at 1 year of age or less.

Clinical significance - This study provides an estimate of the true effect size of gonadectomy on the odds of developing CrCLD, which may be useful for clinical decision making surrounding gonadectomy and the timing of gonadectomy."

We are always so honored when people choose us as their breeder, but when it is a first dog it makes it just a little sweeter. Bleu is such a perfect fit for Mr. and Mrs. Pace! As we watched them drive away, I couldn’t help but think about the beautiful life he is going to have with them. He is a lucky boy!

Nicoletta and James, we look forward hearing about all the joyful memories you make with Bleu!

People ask if it’s hard to let the puppies go. It absolutely is. But getting updates like this lets us know that we are doing something right. All the work, time, and effort we put in is all worth it to see the happiness it brings others. God has blessed us by letting us bless others!Bleu, the only black male from our Anna Sue x Merlin litter, has found his home, no doubt about it! This was the text I received today about Bleu’s Thanksgiving:I have to say, he was EXTREMELY good on Thanksgiving. Everyone was so surprised that he is a puppy because he was that good lol he minded his own business the whole time, did not come to the kitchen once, did not come to the table. 🩵🥰you really do An amazing job with training. He is so smart!#paragonpuppy #littleboybleu #blessings #blacklabrador #thankful #thanksgivingblessings #goodboy #goodlife

We love our puppies! 🥰 We we have no doubt you will too. With our puppy program, we focus on making the experience from litter to forever home as positive as possible! We love answering questions and helping puppy buyers through the entire experience. And that doesn’t stop when you take your puppy home. We love getting updates and questions once they go home too! 🐾🐾We are with you for the life of your dog!! 🐾🐾#labpuppy #puppyprogram #youknowyouwantone #foxredlab #blacklabrador #yellowlab #paragonretrievers #paragonpuppy #uklabs

Positive association to the crate is so important. And when they are 6 weeks old labs that are always hungry, food is about as positive as it gets!! #paragonretrievers #foxredlab #uklabs #yellowlabs #blacklab #growingupparagon #britishlabsofinsta

Heard a rumor that it was National Black Dog Day, soooo……… Hhhheeeeerrrrreeee’s Hank! He was “helping” us clear a spot on the pond for throwing bumpers and shooting ducks. He wasn’t much help with the limbs, but he made sure to keep an eye on the 3 farm ducks that we have on the pond. He’s a good boy!! (P.S. it is a video, he just doesn’t move for the first few seconds. lol) #paragonpuppy #paragonretrievers #blacklabrador #nationalblackdogday #growingupbritish

Wake up sleepy heads! It’s lunch time. The puppies are getting big enough that Anna needs to be upright for them all to nurse. This is a good way for them to build muscle and dexterity, and is the start of mama weaning them. Their eyes are open, but things aren’t quite clear yet, so they have to use their nose to find their food supply, and by moving around the box, mama is also teaching them the importance of following their nose. So many things are learned in their first 8 weeks of life, and it might not seem like much to us humans. But, man, oh man does it make a huge difference in developing a well rounded dog. #dontoverlookthelittlethings #natureandnurture #annasuexmerlinlitter2024 #paragonpuppy #paragonretrievers #mannalitter2024 #puppyplayground #blacklabrador #foxredlab #yellowlab #youknowyouwantone #puppyprogram #growingupbritish #labpuppy #uklabs #labradorpuppies #themoreweknow #themoreyouknow

One of my favorite parts of having puppies is when their eyes and ears open and they respond to us being in their space. This is when the wiggle walking starts. The curiosity of their own howls. And the subtle start to the playfulness. We are so blessed to be able to experience this stage of their lives, and to be able to help nurture them as they prepare for their forever homes! #annasuexmerlinlitter2024 #paragonpuppy #paragonretrievers #mannalitter2024 #blacklabrador #foxredlab #yellowlab #youknowyouwantone #puppyprogram #growingupbritish #huntingdog #labpuppy #irishlabs #uklabradors #fununlimited #labradorpuppies #uklabs #labradorretriever #huntingdogs #labradorsofmissourri #animalovers #breedersthatcare #goodbreedersdoexist #paragonretrievers

Today during their ENS/ESI session we added their identity collars. As they grow, and when they start to move around and wrestle, this will serve as a friendly way to desensitize them for leash and collars later in life.Every interaction we have with our litters is intentional and thought out. We are always looking for ways to do better or improve their litter experience. Here at Paragon Retrievers and Gun Dogs, we are focused on the betterment of the breed and the relationship between the dogs and their families. #labpuppy #puppyprogram #irishlab #britishlab #youknowyouwantone #irishlab #annasuexmerlinlitter2024 #breedersthatcare #goodbreeding #goodbreedersdoexist
