Hello again.
 
I wrote once a long time ago about our Jasper.  We thought he was deaf, and
am still not convinced that he isn't.  There are more reasons to think that
he is than there are reasons that he isn't.  Just one more question.  If he
was really deaf, would he dook when he plays and war dances?  Those of you
who have deaf babies, please tell me if yours are vocal.
 
Mookie is another concern.  He is our token whole male so of course he is
quite smelly and marks his territory, etc.  He is quite a normal whole male,
if you catch my wift, I mean drift.  There is one question for those that
have whole males.  Mookie, when he is out of season is a lot more friendly -
not as aggressive.  As soon as he came into season again this year he bacame
more aggressive.  He seems friendly and he wants to be around you and he
wants you to play with him but his main aim in life is to try and drag you
away somewhere.  If he can't get a hold of your finger (sometimes I have to
hold his head under the tap to make him let go he holds on so tight) he
grabs your sweather, pants, anything he can get a hold of.  He is also an
ankle biter (he knows how to lift up you pant leg and grab a hold) so I
usually wear my boots when he is roaming around.  What have you done to curb
his aggressiveness (or can you)?  If he was vasectomized, would this change
his aggressiveness?  From what I remember, it doesn't really change anything
except his ability to reproduce.  Is this correct?
 
Again, I thank you all in advance for the replies that I will receive.
Thanks for your help.
 
Tryntje, Cam, and the now 9 fuzzies, and of course our dog Tawny.
