The new dog isn’t a replacement for the departed one, as it will have a completely different character and different needs.

Why your dog should be sterilized – prevent Pyometra
Good afternoon from the Scooby family.
We want to present you a serious illness that requires urgent surgery and can be avoided by sterilization.
Pyometra or uterus infection whose symptoms are fever, loss of appetite and in many cases increase in water consumption and if not treated urgently can cause death in a very short time.
There are two types, open and close. The open is easier to observe as the female begins to stain down the vulva. While closed is more dangerous because often when the family realizes the animal is sick it may be too late.
That’s why and many other reasons we always advise you to sterilize your best friend!’

‘Sir Roger Moore, seventime James Bond: “Hunting is a sickness, a perversion and a danger and should be recognised as such. People who get their amusement from hunting and killing defenceless animals can only be suffering from a mental disorder. It´s detestable that anyone would choose to get thrills from killing others who ask for nothing from life but the chance to remain alive”.
