Recently a bill was introduced in the California legislature to mandate neutering and spaying of privately owned pets. This is another attempt at big government intrusion. People who really care about animals do not subject them to unnecessary medical procedures and operations. It is only the greedy pro-abortion people who are pushing this idiotic proposal. They are so pessimistic that they hate to see anyone really enjoying their lives--including pet owners.
The result of such legislation, if enacted, is predictable. In California, owners of dogs that have not been spayed or neutered already pay quite a bit more to license their pets. Requiring that pets be spayed or neutered would only force these pet owners to not obtain dog licenses. If the state tries to enforce such an unjust law, there will be relocation of pets to other states, or to other owners within the state who are compassionate and therefore unwilling to force this unnecessary surgery on healthy dogs. Dogs only live on average about 12-14 years anyway. What about the dogs who are not spayed or neutered and still do not beget puppies because their masters take good care of them and keep them away from other dogs?
Governor Schwartzennegger was right in calling these unethical legislators "girlie men".
