Best Answer

There is no reason for a dog to be circumcised. The sheath of skin covers and protects the glans or the head of the penis. Without it, this area can be easily hurt, for example, from friction.


Note: People debate whether human males need to be circumcised. Many men consider it a form of genital mutilation. Proponents say it helps with hygiene and appearance, but others say those arguments are ridiculous fallacies. Male circumcision has mostly been a Judeo-Christian practice. The Bible directs that males be circumcised on the 8th day, a directive given from God to Abraham to identify who was Jew or not. However, opponents to circumcision say it has nothing to do with cleanliness, a better appearance of the penis, etc. Opponents say it destroys sexual pleasure, causes strictures of tissue around the penis head, and causes lifelong pain for some males.
