The Suprelorin implant for male dogs manages to mimic castration. It does this by impersonating the naturally occurring hormone gonadotropin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suprelorin initially increases your dog&#8217;s natural sex hormones. As a result the gland that usually produces becomes desensitised and stops producing them itself. As a result testosterone falls significantly, and your dog stops producing sperm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although not nearly as commonplace a treatment, the Suprelorin implant also has the potential to be used on female dogs. But the initial flare up caused by the deslorelin is a problem in female dogs because it brings them into season. So for the time being, this implant is almost exclusively for males.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#use\">What is the Suprelorin implant used for in dogs?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#speed\">How quickly does Suprelorin work on dogs?<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#side\">The potential for side effects.<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#vs\">Comparing the Suprelorin implant with traditional neutering.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The subject of castration presents a moral dilemma for many of us. Whether we\u2019re trying to prevent unwanted pups, or moderate behavior, surgically removing a part of your dog can feel like a huge decision to make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, we\u2019ve been presented with more options to solve this. Temporary and reversible contraception techniques have been becoming more commonplace. With treatments available that claim to produce the same results as castration, with none of the permanence and invasive surgical procedures.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"use\">Suprelorin Implants for Male or Female Dogs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The hormone in Suprelorin affects both male and female dogs. Three potential uses for female dogs are induction of estrus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the short term, Suprelorin brings female dogs into season. It can also prevent contraception with prolonged use, and has been involved in the treatment of incontinence in spayed females. The most common target for the drug however, is adult male dogs as the implant&nbsp;renders male dogs temporarily infertile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Uses of Suprelorin in Male Dogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Suprelorin implant is usually given to male dogs to prevent fertility or change behavior. At one time, castration was almost universally believed to improve a wide range of behaviors in male dogs. Including aggression which was thought to be linked to the hormone testosterone. However, only a third of castrated dogs showed any noticeable change in behavior for the better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of recent studies have called into question the traditional views on castration reducing aggression.&nbsp;Some studies have even shown that castration may make aggression worse. It&#8217;s thought that this is because testosterone is a confidence building hormone. And much aggression in dogs is related to fear, rather than to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/dog-dominance\/\">alpha dog tendencies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suprelorin for dogs has the benefit of offering a test run to see how castration might affect your dog. One that can be done easily and before removing his testes surgically and permanently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is in Suprelorin for dogs?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The active ingredient in Suprelorin is deslorelin. This compound was originally marketed by a company called Peptech. But the most popular current product to use deslorelin is the Virbac superlorin implant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"speed\">How quickly does the Suprelorin implant work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Deslorelin is released gradually into the dog&#8217;s blood stream as soon as the implant is placed under the skin. The contraceptive effect of the drug does not happen straight away. And the implant may need to be in place for 6 weeks before it\u2019s fully effective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A dog with an established Suprelorin implant is much less likely to try and mate. Due to the lack of testosterone. Even if this dog did mate successfully, the chance of it resulting in a pregnancy is incredibly low, due to the inhibited sperm production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s worth pointing out though, that Suprelorin implants for dogs are not given to males before puberty. It\u2019s not that it would necessarily harm them, although you would expect a lack of testosterone to have an effect on a male dog\u2019s development, it\u2019s just that we don\u2019t really know what would happen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long will a Suprelorin implant last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The length of time a Suprelorin implant will be effective for is determined by the dosage. As the implant steadily releases this contraceptive into the bloodstream, it only stops working when the supply runs out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your vet will discuss dosage based on how long you want the implant to affect your dog. A Suprelorin 4.7 mg implant for dogs, for example, will last about 6 months. If your dog receives a 9.4 mg implant, the length of time his testosterone will be inhibited will be 12 months. The 4.7mg implant seems to be more popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the course of 6 months you should get a pretty good idea of how your dogs behavior has changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"side\">Suprelorin implant side effects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Side effects are a fact of life, no matter what we\u2019re trying to treat. Suprelorin is no different and we should be prepared and understand the potential risks. The most obvious side effects are the ones that would normally come from the act of castration. The resultant drop in testosterone could cause a change in your dog&#8217;s behavior. It might for example, result in a less confident dog. This loss of confidence can cause fearfulness or anxiety. Which in turn can result in a dog becoming stressed or aggressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that &#8216;flare up&#8217; we talked about as the initial effect of deslorelin. Well this happens in male dogs too. This means that Suprelorin has the potential to make your dog more fertile for a short period after implantation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other side effects<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A 2012 study found that some of the dogs tested had a higher sperm count in the weeks leading up to the eventual decline. There is no evidence of an effect on your dogs fertility long term. You can expect fertility to return to normal after the implant has run it\u2019s course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slight changes to your dogs appearance are possible as testosterone is a key factor in how the body generates and maintains muscle. The site of the implant will usually be rather sore for about two weeks. At this time inflammation can occur and the area might feel hard to the touch. This swelling can persist for up to three months, but should eventually go down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re concerned at all about the site of the implant not looking right, it never hurts to talk to your vet. Every dog will react differently, and some may have particular problems with the implant being under their skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Suprelorin implant cost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two main factors involved in the cost of Suprelorin for dogs; the actual cost of the implant, and the vets bills on top of it. Because of the amount these can vary country to country, state to state, and even clinic to clinic it\u2019s very hard to make a reasonable estimate about how much you will pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the UK prices can range from anywhere between \u00a3100 and \u00a3300, depending on the dose of the implant. And also on your own vet and how much they charge for their time. The figures in Australia are similar in AUD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suprelorin could end up saving you money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"vs\">Suprelorin Implant vs Neutering<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Castration in male dogs is usually undertaken to both<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prevent reproduction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improve behavior<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Suprelorin can give you a glimpse into how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/neutering-your-labrador\/\">neutering will affect their personality<\/a>. This might not be something we even thought about if our main concern is limiting the potential to breed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dog lives with a female dog, and you don&#8217;t like the effect that the Suprelorin has on his personality, you may want to consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/pros-and-cons-of-neutering-a-labrador\/\">neutering your female<\/a> instead. Surgical castration is an excellent and permanent way to prevent your dog making puppies.  But we now know that it may be less effective at improving behavior. Results will vary from dog to dog. In a dog that is already showing signs of nervousness for example, an implant that causes a profound drop in his testosterone levels could potentially make matters worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What Suprelorin claims to deliver is the same results as castration, but with none of the permanence. With this implant we can in essence \u2018test drive\u2019 a castrated dog without needing to make the absolute decision. Using this method owners can decide whether the permanent solution is a good decision. It\u2019s important to bear in mind that, with regards to the smaller dosage, these effects will only last 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, Suprelorin appears to do what it says on the box. By temporarily stalling testosterone production, you get a dog that is infertile for a while. This gives you a chance to assess the dog&#8217;s&nbsp;behavior in the absense of testosterone.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1103\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre.jpg\" alt=\"Suprelorin for dogs - are these hormone implants right for your dog?\" class=\"wp-image-20505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre-768x1059.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre-743x1024.jpg 743w, https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre-696x960.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thelabradorsite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/supre-305x420.jpg 305w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Suprelorin implant for dogs is a capsule that placed under the skin and that slowly releases a hormone that affects your dog&#8217;s fertility.
