right! before you all get stroppy with me and say its a good thing and the person who said i just want to breed on the cheap your wrong!!!!!
to cut a long story short, this dog was my uncles dog.. he has has him since the dog was 8 weeks old. recently my uncle hasnt been able to walk him for health reasons so he decided to give him to the rspca to find him a good home. with out telling my mum ( his sister ) when my mum found out she asked him why he didnt ask her if she wanted him. now my mum is trying to get back the dog. she has known him all his life since he was 8 weeks old. my mum doesnt want him back without his nuts she wants him back how she knows him. they lose there personality when thats done. the dog had only been in there 1 day when my mum found out he was there and she called to get him staight away. now they are saying he might be a violant dog ect ect and thats why they are doing it . but im sure me, my mum and my uncle know him alot better then any one from rspca.

one more thing to the person who thinks we want to breed him. we have breeded before and he is a complete pedegree 100% his dad and mum both won cruffs. so maybe you should assume things really should you.

The RSPCA will be acting for the best interests of the dog so I hope that there is no way to stop them there are too many unwanted dogs in the UK!

I think we can all answer this but we need more info as to why you need to stop it? Who's dog is it? Was it yours? or is it one you want to adopt and breed? Neutering is definitely in the best interest of the dog! If this was your dog and it now belongs to the ASPCA, then they have the dogs best interests at heart as it should have already been neutered and they only take dogs away from owners for extreme reasons, like , neglect, abuse, overbreeding, fighting, and such, if these are some of the reasons why you lost your dog, stop worrying the dog is where it should be and will find a better home with the ASPCA's help. If it's not your dog, and your just looking to adopt, my apologies, I have very strong feelings about dogs and the reasons they need to be placed in ASPCA's in the first place, I don't have much sympathy for the former owners cause I know what they didn't do to get the dogs taken away from them. If your wanting to adopt to breed, you can't really do that from a shelter dog, you won't have any papers or proof that it is full blooded, so either way let them neuter the dog.

They neuter and spay most dogs that come into the home preventing in any more unwanted dogs.They obviously dont neuter or spay the puppys but they do give you information on bringing the dog back at around 6 months to have the operation.Why do you want to know if theres a way that you can prevent them neutering a dog?having a litter is not something that is taken lightly and shouldn't be done by inexpeirienced owners.It takes alot of time and effort and im hoping that you wern't considering it.

Once a dog is in the RSPCA - as in it has been abandoned, they automatically neuter the dog so that it has a better chance of being adopted and a lot of potential owners who go there to pick out an animal will buy one for that reason.
I don't think you could stop them, because there is a law they need to carry out there and after so many weeks of not being adopted, they are put down.
I think you would just have to go to the nearest RSPCA clinic where you live and talk with them about it.

Why do you want to?
Dogs should be neutered unless you plan to breed and only show winners should be bred.
You will only be able to stop it if the dog is yours and was given to the RSPCA by someone else after getting lost or something.Otherwise you don't have any legal right.
Ok just read your added info.
Who the hell told you they lose personality when neutered?This is totally untrue!

There is no way- Most shelters require it so that more dogs are not produced and have to be put to sleep!Its a painfully scarring when they do have to put one down, so if they can prevent it,they will! Its a tough situation for them, why don't you want a dog nurtured?? If you are planning on breeding it, then why are you adopting in the first place, one good doesn't cancel out out the puppy's whose life's might be ruined! If it is for medical reasons, then explain that to them, or if you want to show- and they cant be fixed, explain that to them as well! They are very understanding and kind, but they think of the animals well being before the persons wants! i hope this helps!

Let me guess...
You want to breed dogs, but don't want to pay the going rate from a reputable breeder. Instead, you hope to just take something cheaply and increase the already unmanageable problem of homeless dogs, and hope that organisations such as the RSPCA will clean up the mess after you've got your money.
I very much doubt you'd get an un-neutered dog from ANY reputable rescue.
If yoyu want to breed, find out about how to deal with pregnancy, whelp. How to ensure that all dogs get a good home. Pay the going rate for your dog(s) and pay for health screening. etc. etc
We don't need more backyard breeders creating dogs for landfill.

You think I'm going to give my phone number to a complete stranger on this site? Sorry, but I'm just not that lonely.
Rescue centres get people coming in all the time with various sob stories from byb's about wanting an un-neutered dog. Even if you are genuine - you can hardly blame them if they refuse your request. Your best chance would be to get your uncle to phone &/or write to the rescue he took the dog to and vouch for the dog staying with the family on your mother's behalf.
Even then I don't like your chances.
Why not take him home anyway, minus his testicles? You'd be giving a dog you already know (and hopefully love) a second chance.

Dog neutering is not a bad thing it calms dogs down as well as preventing unwanted litter's, to have a dog in the care of the RSPCA, suggests to me that that it is probablys in the dogs interests to be neutered .

If it is your expensive registered pedigree dog that has escaped and they picked it up and took it to a shelter you need to act pretty quickly. They will not usually neuter them straight away as they will be waiting to see if someone claims it. ( summarily neutering a cruft's champion because it strayed could get them sued big time)
If your dog has been picked up by them phone them and get there asap, I don't know how long they allow for owners to claim them but they should be able to tell you that on the phone.

Why would you want the rspca not to neuter a dog?
Why is it in this position in the first place?
