gnipper 6,466 Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Did it stop him pissing or will his leg be going back up when the tenderness wears off? Quote Link to post

gnipper 6,466 Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 I think a kick up the arse would have been more effective but good luck with it. 3 Quote Link to post

Dawn B 212 Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 It most likely wont affect his ability to work. However, over time you may find it impossible to strip his coat. They often go thick and soft after neutering over time. When clipped they are completely non weatherproof and will be useless for working is the poorer weather. Also be aware that he will be more inclined to gain weight. Quote Link to post

engr82 71 Posted March 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah il run him around everyday so he shouldnt put weight on but I guess I cant help it of his coat ends up shit which would be a shame as its a one good now.
