Absolutely right. There are also many people out there who can drive a semi tractor trailer, but we do not just take their word for it, they need to pass a test and get a license.
The two issues are not exactly the same. If a semi gets out of control people die, if an intact dog does only dogs can get killed.
OC_Spirit, I thought your answer about what it takes to responsibly keep intact dogs was great, and I do believe you have the knowlege and facilities to do it right. I do not think that is true for the vast majority of owners, like me.
Point is dogs are property and we have the right to do what we want with them. I just hope people reading your posts take the warnings as seriously as the benefits.

LOL what kind of test would you propose?
Knowledge does not equal common sense.
