You do not seem to be very sophisticated, so allow me to try and explain in very simple terms.

First, I have no preferences here, so your repeated &quot;you prefer&quot; is insulting and shows your ignorance.

Second, if you think that Neuticles will encourage people to neuter their pet when they would not have done so previously you are crazy.

Third, I am not &quot;using the internet to begrudge&quot; this product.  On top of that &quot;begrudge&quot; is not the correct word.  Further, I am not saying anything about the product.  I am limiting my comments to those who have enough money to worry about the self esteem of their pet and give them implants.  

Finally, if Neuticles decides to sue me it would be the biggest mistake they will ever make.  I have not disparaged the product, and the First Amendment allows me to say what I want.  If they were to sue me it would be malicious and not only would I win, but I would win my attorneys fees and damages.

		<description>Mr Quinn:

And I feel sorry for you that you fail to realize that Neuticles are encouraging
caring pet owners to neuter their pets that simply would not before. As
a result, pet over population is being reduced and those pets are living longer,
happier and healthier lives. 

Obviously, you prefer the same barbaric method of altering used on our pets today which 
was created in 1802. Since your vision of progress of veterinary care is limited
to 200 years past I just assumed you also preferred blood letting as a form of 
curing what ailes you.

What I do understand is you are using the internet to begrudge a wonderful product
used by over 28,000 veterinary clinics and hospitals Worldwide to enhance and
promote your website and I hope the company that makes Neuticles see&#039;s this
and sues you.  If they do, please let me know and I can refer you to a good attorney.</description>

Thanks for noticing how ethical and honest attorneys are.  Unfortunately, some do not understand the rigorous ethical standards attorneys are held to, so it is truly appreciated that you understand.

Insofar as the substance of your comment, I am really quite dumbfounded.  It seems you are having enormous difficulty presenting your thoughts in a coherent way.  What a barber and blood letting have to do with this invention is mysterious.  Nevertheless, the fact remains that if any pet owners are paying for testicular implants they are proving that they have more money than they know what to do with.  It is readily apparent that a far more humane use of such funds would be to donate it to charity to help those in society in need of assistance. 

I don&#039;t begrudge anyone spending money on whatever they want, but this is a truly obscure patent and in my view anyone who gets testicular implants for their pet is wasting money.  I have a right to that opinion, just as you have a right to your opinion.  It is really too bad you don&#039;t seem to understand that I have a right to my opinion, and rather choose to insult me instead.  I feel sorry for you.

		<description>new hire:

 i didnt have a problem with my dog. the website says zero complications in 14
years and over 250,000 pets. Each Neuticled pet is insured for up to $2 million against
any form of complications for the life of the pet.  what other company offers that
as a guarantee?</description>

You realize that this kind of elective surgery carries some risk of infection or other complication, right?</description>

		<description>One more time, Mr Quinn.

You are a victim of our culture in which emasculation of our beloved
pets is considered the norm. 

Neuticles are encouraging the caring pet owner to neuter that simply
would not before and as a result pet over population is being reduced
and those pets are living longer, happier and healthier lives.

In an age where over 20 million pets are killed each year due to pet
over population in the US alone, it would seem you would have the
basic common sense to realize that patented Neuticles are serving
a useful and humane purpose.

Do you go to the barber, Mr Quinn, to get your blood let when not
feeling well as your thought process is circa 1700&#039;s.

But I would imagine your opinions will believed by some as you are
an &quot;attorney&quot; and everyone knows how &quot;ethical&quot; and &quot;honest&quot; attorney&#039;s
are- don&#039;t we?</description>

		<description>Andrew-

Thank you for the laugh.  Obviously, you have way too much time and money on your hands.  Worry about self esteem for pets is absolutely ridiculous and everyone how has the ability to think rationally understands that.  There is no problem with neutering a pet, but fixing your pet and then implanting testicles is bizarre on a Paris and/or Perez Hilton level.

As for my hourly rate, presently it is $350 per hour, and most of my work is done on a flat fee basis.  When I do charge by the hour I charge only for time worked.  It is unethical to work 10 minutes and bill a full hour, and I would never do that.  If you knew me you would understand that to be the case.  

Best wishes to you.  I fear you need all the well wishes you can get.

		<description>Obviously Mr Quinn is not a pet owner and fails to understand
the concept of Neuticles. 

So, Mr.  $500/hr Attorney, let me explain so even you can understand.

You are a victim of our culture in which emasculation of our beloved
pets is considered the norm. 

Neuticles are encouraging the caring pet owner to neuter that simply 
would not before and as a result pet over population is being reduced 
and those pets are living longer, happier and healthier lives.

In an age where over 20 million pets are killed each year due to pet
over population in the US alone, it would seem you would have the 
basic common sense to realize that patented Neuticles are serving 
a useful and humane purpose.

Mr Quinn, I would imagine, is not a pet owner- he cares more about
charging $500 and hour for 10 minutes work and likely has more money
than he knows what to do with and could care less about animalkind
and their feelings.</description>
