Esterisol/Neutersol...Ever heard of it?
Came across this blog post, and thought this was something worth sharing:

Here are a few other links with additional info:

In short, it's a way the neuter a dog with nothing more than an injection in each testicle. The dog is no longer able to produce sperm and yet is still capable of producing about 50% of the testosterone that they would have produced if left intact. I find this intriguing as this would allow a dog to be neutered at 6 months and yet still continue to develop, though probably at a slower pace. It seems to have been recently brought back into production and is starting to be distributed in the US.
I'm curious to see what will come of this and if it will in fact become the new common way to neuter.
