That is in the one that focuses on EARLY alters.   I thought this one was good because it showed all sides.

If I had it my way I wouldn't have had Plato neutered.  But, I am under contract with the breeder so it was done.  Not only does it make me feel bad, I just think it is kind of denying nature.

Had to be neutered between 18-24 months since I didn't want to show and he wouldn't be bred.
