Answer 4

Neutered, by definition is both spaying and castration. Females are spayed, males are castrated. A term I've heard used to refer to a castrated dog is a "jerry" dog. The term "neuter" is used to describe castration in a dog. It is the surgical removal of a male dog's testicles.

Answer 5

Male dog neutering, otherwise known as sterilisation, "fixing", desexing, castration (castrating) or by its correct veterinary name: orchiectomy (also termed gonadectomy), is the surgical removal of a male dog's testicles for the purposes of canine population control, medical health benefit, genetic-disease control and behavioral modification.

Answer 6

For a normal dog neuter, a single incision is made directly in front of the testicles and scrotum.

Answer 11

A standard male dog is commonly known as a "dog." In technical terms, this implies that the dog hasn't fathered any young, nor has it been used for breeding. Animals are commonly called only one collective name without any clear distinction. However, this is where dogs differ from cats.

Answer 12

"Neutering" is often used incorrectly to refer only to male animals, but the term actually applies to both sexes.

The male-specific term is castration, while spaying is usually reserved for female animals.

Colloquially, both terms are often referred to as fixing.

In male horses, castrating is referred to as gelding.
