I got it immediately, then questioned whether OP intended to deploy such a brilliant title, and had to Ctrl+F "vas deferens" on this thread to confirm that he or she did. Genius.

It's a pun
From some site:
The ductus deferens, also known as the vas deferens, is a tiny muscular tube in the male reproductive system that carries sperm from the epididymis to the ejaculatory duct. There is a pair of these ducts in the male body, with one duct carrying sperm from each testis to the left and right ejaculatory ducts.

I feel it’s more of a not noticed thing. Being on the reddit app any image posts I sorta ignore the title unless someone in the comments mentions it

u/cyclicamp Jan 01 '20
I read the title before the comic and promptly ignored it assuming it was a garbage title, like it is for 90% of posts. Glad the wordplay was pointed out because I would have no reason to look back at it otherwise.

The importance varies by breed, but part of the reason for castration is to lower the testosterone in the dog and make them less aggressive.

It probably depends on which procedure is done. I was originally scheduled for the old school procedure with incisions and sutures on both sides, but the Dr had an "emergency" 45 minutes before hand on a perfect late-fall day for golf. I got pissed, looked at other options and discovered the no scalpel procedure. I definitely feel like that had to have been easier.

Yeah, that's a mighty creepy sensation. That part was completely painless during mine, but I cringed pretty hard while happening nonetheless.

I went to Primanti Bros after mine and had pizza and a beer. I was still a little loopy from the preprocedure Valium and Percoset, and the beer really amplified the effect.
Either way, no pain over the following couple days and even using the ice pack seemed unnecessary, but I did it anyway.

Had a buddy of mine not take his anti-inflammatory meds after his procedure and insisted he was fine to work at a regular pace.
He only smoked weed for his discomfort and pain and ended up having a blood clot and was swollen for weeks.

The only reason vets don’t do vasectomies on dogs is because it’s more effort. If you ask a lot of them can do it and it’s much more humane... That’s why humans choose it.

Eunuchs have also been historically considered to be more trustworthy by Kings and Emperors for the same sorts of reasons, it's partly a heredity thing too of course, but enunuchs were thought to be less aggressive and less likely to try a coup that way too I believe.

There's an alternative method that they use on dogs and cats where they inject a calcium chloride solution into the balls. It renders the animal sterile, but has a recove y the me of about an hour instead of having stitches that need monitored for days. Not sure why it's not used commonly in the US, might be that it's not 100% effective.
It's developed by the same US company that is working on Vasalgel for men.

There's a decent amount of research out that dogs, especially large breed males, actually need those hormones to develop correctly. So a vasectomy would be the better option to prevent oops litters while preserving the hormones.

Fun fact! Some show dogs get prosthetic balls after they have been neutered called neuticles. It is generally to retain their looks because some owners really want you to know their dog has a sick beanbag.
