"What started 10 years ago with an experiment on an unwitting Rottweiler named Max has turned into a thriving mail-order business. And on Thursday night Miller's efforts earned him a dubious yet strangely coveted honor: the Ig Nobel Prize for medicine.

Miller has sold more than 150,000 of his Neuticles, more than doubling his $500,000 investment. The silicone implants come in different sizes, shapes, weights and degrees of firmness."

4. My vet looked at me like I was insane.

After being at the dog park, and seeing a Bull Mastiff with a particularly casual fix job, I thought that I would bring up the implant thing with her. At the dogpark I commented to the Bull Mastiff's owner that she had a great looking dog and how old was she. Not that I look that close, but she was a he.

Well my Bull Mastiff puppy was six months old, and at the vet for a regular checkup and shots, and I told her that I did not want my dog to look like a post-op transexual, so the Neutical question.

Like a human's doctor when you get the "are you kidding me" look, I got the "you have to be kidding me" look from the vet. She went on to explain that the one I saw, the vet left the skin too loose. Well he went in, and he now, as the vet promised, does not look wierd.

After the Neutical converstaion though, as I was at the counter, I could hear them laughing their asses off in the back area, where all the vets were.

I was just asking. What's so bad about that?

5. get a new vet.

anyone who would use your honest questions for comedy hour behind your back is an asshole.

at least they should have waited until you left the building, you pay them for their services right? I think that was shitty.

and you obviously aren't alone in wanting them for your dog. I wouldn't do it, but that's just me.
