dc.description.abstractUnwanted stray dogs and uncontrolled pets are primary sources of ecological and social problems. The female dogs are still widely perceived as the primary targets for reproductive control on the premises that owners of fertile males are not likely to be concerned with pregnancies or the offsprings of bitches. As a consequence the development of contraceptives for controlling the growth of the pet population has been primarily directed towards the female of the species. However, the participation of both sexes is an unavoidable requirement for pregnancy, and the contribution of the male to the overall growth of the pet population can no longer be ignored as each intact male is reproductively active year round and therefore capable of siring a number of litters. The sterilization of a large number of males would effectively contribute to curb the growtli of pet population (Patrica and Shirley, 1993). Currently, the only proven means of contraception for the dogs are confinement and surgical sterilization. As effective as these two procedures are, neither has been widely embraced by the public, and the need for the development of suitable alternative has been recognized by the veterinary profession and human associations.
