As I stated before, I have 4 dogs all spayed/neutered, 4 cats all neutered. Just because I have taken in a couple dogs and all 4 cats, does not mean I want to live in a stinking house, I work to keep my house clean, 1 dog is large and lives in protected dog pen w/steel roof, no rain,snow ever gets to him. They all live healthier lives and you will have cheaper Vet. bills because of it.
