According to the report, neutered male dogs live 18% longer than un-neutered male dogs and spayed female dogs live 23% longer than unspayed female dogs. The report goes on to add that in Mississippi, the lowest-ranking state for pet longevity, 44% of the dogs are not neutered or spayed.
Neutering is often used incorrectly to refer only to male animals but the term actually applies to both sexes.

In male horses, castrating is referred to as gelding.
