Abstract: Castration, also known as neutering, is a common surgical procedure performed in male dogs that offers several health, behavioral and population control benefits. This article delves into the effects of castration on canine behavior, the reduction of reproductive health issues and its role in controlling the stray dog population. We will also address common misconceptions about the procedure and outline the steps involved in the surgery, recovery and post-operative care.
