any truth to the reports of cases of increased aggression in the 12 week period post implant?

He's had his 2nd implant and he was such a good boy. Extra sweetie after to take his mind off it.

It has calmed him down as he was very "on his toes" in the ring which older judges seem to like but I would rather a calmer attitude in the ring.

As I said above my boy can be a litlle male aggressive when on the lead as well as bitching the superlorin has stopped it all he is like a neutered dog and as I said above they have tended to last longer each time obviously evey dog is different.

He is a joy to live with and enjoys his walks and socialising with others now.

It is only about 48 pound for a box of 2 at cost so think it would work out cheaper then tardak as tardak only lasts 3 weeks and this will last a minimum of 6 months,

Speak to your virbac rep for more info or goggle suprelorin as I got my first implant for my dog from australia as they werent out here I found it when looking for alternatives to castration.

We also have at least 4 dogs in the practice who have it

We use it on a few dogs and had good results with it. We have mainly used it for cases where GA is not an option or o not keen. eg we have a 15yr old shih tzu and it has shrunk his anal adenomas to nothing.

Hard as it sounds from what you say it will be immaterial as soon as it bites someone (soon reading your comments and bearing in mind it is an out of control rottie) it is going to be destroyed "baby or no baby"

as well as for preventing mating, has anyone used it for behavioural problems ?

we're about to use Tardak for a dog at our low income clinic, partly because the owner wanted a quicker fix than castration, partly because the problems with the dog (a year old rottie who is her "baby"-now you see why there's a problem.....) are behavioural and need to be addressed by training asap.
Funds are limited but Tardak is probably going to cost £40 or so depending on his weight.....
Wondered if this drug is as good/better/cheaper etc... as not heard of it and the vets didn't mention using it instead of Tardak.

thanks

That helps loads, thanks.

We was due the 2nd at the end of October but hasn't shown much in the way of signs until now.

Gaia isn't due into season until Mid March so have got the inplant in ready for next week.

Poor boy going to go through it in Feb as due boosters, KC, rabies booster and Suprelorin.

I use suprelorin in my show dog he is on his 5th injection they gradually last longer each time he went 6 months between 1st and 2nd 7 months between 2nd and 3rd I gave the 4th at 7 months as I had some big shows coming up and didnt want him Bitching, he then went 9 months between 4th and the 5th.

His Testicles are small aswell

You can tell when they are running out there testicles gradually get bigger and my boy bitches and gets a little to male on the lead

Hope this helps
