All dogs start as small adorable puppies that perfectly fit in our laps. But they grow. They grow fast. And sometimes, they grow really big. But that doesn’t stop them from curling up in the best place in the whole world - on you.

Do you have dogs that are not quite as small as they believe? Share pictures here!

    It's called a neuter. Responsible pet owners do this for many reasons. One being pet overpopulation and the thoysands of dogs euthanized daily. Another are health reasons. If neutered before 6 months, they are almost 100% not going to get prostate cancer or issues. They are less likely to fight. They are less likely to try and break away to find a mate or wonder away. They are also less likely to lift their leg on everything in your home. How do people not know about this in 2017?
