Ska. I am an owner of two male Rott/Chow dogs. 1 is 11.5 the father, the other 10 his son. When I seperated from my Ex I took the son with me and she would not let me have the father. Both dogs were whole, intact males. Duncan was Alpha at his home Dozer Alpha with me. 6 months later my Ex asked me to take the father because he tried to kill her new guys Wolf dog, and attacked the new boyfriend several times. I agreed to take him. A month goes by and I almost lose both dogs in a horrific fight that happened when i wasn't home. I was able to save both. The Vet told me that if I had them fixed I would no longer have this issue with them fighting so i agreed. Guess what? He was full of crap. They got into it again about a year later and Dozer the son almost lost his front leg. Even today 7 or 8 years later they show Alpha dominance agression at odd moments, so I keep them apart when I am not home. Now Recently my female dog went into heat and during her cycle the male dogs were insane with mating drive and had to be watched at all time because they tried to attack each other. So all those studies you found do not mean anything to me as I have living proof that neutering does not change behavior.
