Neuticles

I really enjoyed the Neuticles story, not only is it an unusual and entertaining topic, but it was a well researched well written piece. I thought the story did a great job using ambient sound and incorporating it as a vital tool to enhance their story. The stories use of jargon and colloquialism was a testament to the skill that the writers have for writing entertaining copy. The reporters obviously did their research because of all the information from advocates of both side. It always adds to the story when you can find professionals with opinions that both support and contradict the claims of the story. I found it interesting that the doctor had found that all of the pet owners who had requested the procedure were males with very masculine reasoning for the procedure. As a dog lover, I feel like the procedure is a good thing and if I had male dogs I would definitely go ahead with the procedure. As I have two female dogs, I have limited experience with male dogs, but the little experience I do have, I have witnessed that male dogs do become passive and shy after they are neutered.
