| It it is a pet, I would say neuter. I work at an animal hospital and have seen people's faces just crumble when they are told their unneutered older dog has a prostate tumor and may need surgery. Usually this happens to senior dog and the surgery risks are greater. Same for unspayed females that develop nasty pyometras or mammory tumors. We just operated on a very sick 6 year old basset hound that had pyometra which is literally pus in the uterus. Not a pretty site for sure and the dog was extremely sick. Almost always it is emergency surgery. We are fairly inexpensive but some places charge over a $1,000.
