Sporting Lucas Terrier (neutered)

[Foxgun Tom 75]

I've just taken in a 10 month neutered Sporting Lucas Terrier, The pup's parents are both working, any terrier I've owned/worked in the past, has always been intact, I personally can't see how him being neutered his gonna affect his working ability? does anyone have experience of working a neutered dog?

 

I've taken him on because he's a fiesty,confident (stands his ground with other dog's)His previous owners got him neutered gave up on him because of dominance issues? He bullied and cajoled their other Lucas Terrier (their words) and to be honest they did'nt have a clue about the breed or terriers in general and had'nt a clue about basic training or discipline ( I think they just wanted a couple of nice looking book-end terriers to pose with).

 

I want to bring him on and if he does'nt make the grade as a proficient working tyke my Mrs is willing to have him as the house dog, Positive side besides the neutering is that he's house trained great with kids and other people and can't dominate my other dogs (GSP's) because they tower way above him and their hierarchy is already fixed and they won't take shit of a pup!!

 

Well what do you think lads should I invest time in him "nuetered or not?" I've worked bitche's in the past that have been spayed for medical reasons and it has'nt affected their working ability but they don't depend on testosterone?

Ps: the previous owners bought him in England for over £400 docked and microchipped I have all his paperwork, I just wish they'ed contacted me sooner before they took the decision to remove his bollock's

hunting (if it has hunting drive etc.) is something that is in a working terrier genes because of his ancestors and the breeding behind it. neutering of a dog does only effect his hormones, and maybe his dominance against other dogs if he was dominant because of his hormones and not because of its genes. many people who buy working terriers as a pet ( ) think when neutered a dog will give up hunting..they know nothing about dogs. something that is genetically preserved in a dog can not be sorted out by neutering.

Testosterone imo plays no part in the working ability and the lack of it may even be a bonus when bitches are nearing their time . Give him a go Tom and let us know .
