Hi Dana R!
Surgery for female dog, involves an ovariohysterectomy, removal of the ovaries and uterus via a surgical incision over the belly button. Note how this differs with the equivalent human procedure, a hysterectomy, where only the uterus is removed.
Surgery for male dog, involves complete removal of the testes via a small surgical incision between the penis and the scrotum. Dogs do not have vasectomies like humans.
In other word ,for female dog, disappears a problems heat, pregnant, a bloody vaginal discharge, attraction of local male dogs, offensive odor in heat, health problems:Pyometra, Cancer,...female dog fixed.
For male dog, because the testicles are responsible for the production of the male sex hormone, testosterone, and sperm, the neutered dog will show reduced signs of sexual behavior and will no longer be fertile....male dog fixed.
Intact male dogs (those not neutered) are prone to a number of annoying behaviors that are directly related to testosterone production. Behaviors such as urine marking; mounting other dogs, objects, and people; roaming in search of females; and aggression toward other male dogs are all caused by testosterone. Having the dog neutered, thus eliminating testosterone production, greatly reduces these behaviors, as well as decreases the animal's level of stress.

Well some stupid people think that a dog having puppies is a nuisence so when they get it "fixed" it solves the risk of having that nuisence. So it "fixes" the problem. Thats what I think anyway. And also sometimes a female animal might have a health problem that if having babies might complicate the problem making it worse. Or it could complicate the pregnancy so getting the animal "fixed" prevents that problem from occuring. It "fixes" the rist of having those problems. Hope that makes sense

You know, that never dawned on me until I read your question, but you are right....that doesn't make a lick of sense!!!!
I guess the message we are to get is that responsible people fix things to lead us away from the best advice I've ever heard, which is - if it works - don't fix it.

Well what I think is that people think that you are Fixing a dog by making it so that it does not have babies. How they think that is fixing a dog ask a vet.

The problems are unwanted puppies so when a dog is fixed the problems of unwanted puppies are fixed. Fixed doesn't refer to the surgery it refers to unwanted puppies.

It fixes the "problem" of unwanted puppies.
But, that wouldn't be to helpful for a breeder....
Or maybe they didn't want to tell their kids what neutering is....
