They can be cheeky sometimes! (gives you an excuse to buy more sheets!) Lablover, With the deslorelin implants there have been no noted effects to fertility in trials after five repeated injections (testosterone suppressed for 2.5-3 years). While the drug is effective there is a slight disuse atropy of the testes, that resolves once the implant has worn off and the testes are producing testosterone and sperm again. Thank's for the welcome!

Aggression can be caused by a variety of different factors. Where aggression is purely a result of testosterone - usually male inter-dog aggression - then the implant should have a positive effect on the dog. Therefore, the implants can be used to 'road-test' castration without going ahead with the surgery. If the result is favourable, then the implants can be continued every 6 months or the more permanent castration can be carried out. As most people know there are no 'quick-fixes' with behavioural problems and they always involve added training, but with the implant (or castration) alone you should expect about a 2/3 reduction in inter-male aggression, a 2/3 reduction in mounting and a 1/3 reduction in urine marking (entire males only). The implants do not have an effect if the males are already castrated. Hope this helps!

Hi Everyone, I am the product manager for the new 6 month implant to stop testosterone and it seems as though there may be some confusion regarding the product. If anyone has any questions then I would advise they ring their local vet or you welcome to ask me any questions about it. Thanks
