To Ralph Liberatore, the thought of having his miniature pinscher Butch neutered was painful.

Was it concern for his vanity?

"Well, probably ... sure," says Liberatore. "How is he going to be looked at by the other dogs in the dog world?"

Then he heard about Neuticles - testicular implants made of silicone that would make Butch look like Butch again.

"And I did get him the right size," says Liberatore.

Since Neuticles hit the market, nearly 150,000 pairs have been sold.

Liberatore says support for the gems are split right down the middle.

"Women's ... two reactions would be 'eeeew,' or, 'He doesn't know any different,'" says Liberatore. "Guys are like, 'Really? Awesome! You gotta do it.'"

They've got to be kidding, I think the last quote says it best.

"I think the money would be better spent if the person who wanted these implants went to therapy," says Schulman.

Oh my goodness, what they won't think of next... I could perhaps see them has useful for things such as the westminster dog show, but.... to get a dog a pair to impress the other dogs in the dogpark... Well, that's just too stupid to even contemplate.

These had to have been invented by somoene who clearly had an inferiority complex at the locker room in the gym.

It just shows you can sell anything to some people....especially the people with too much money. Makes me wonder why anyone would succumb to endorsements by high-paid sports figures, etc.

Dogs use their nose - not eyes. I would think.

Money, money, money.

Getting a Great Dane pair for your newly fixed Lhasa Apso... priceless!

Ha, except of course you can't show a nuetered dog in a dog show, and the judge can probably tell if they're fake.

Yeah...that's crazy. I don't think dogs give a crap if they're nuetered or not. It's the owners that have the problem...

I don't think my boy knows anything about that end of the world... let alone even noticed that he is missing somethings!

Hehe! We really are going nuts. So the dog gets the chop - he's pissed off for a day,then forgets that they ever existed. Big deal!
I agree with the "better spent on therapy" phrase in the article...
