3. Does neutering strip them of their "manhood"?

I have recently adopted a 4 1/2 year old male boxer. He is not neutered but has an appointment tomorrow. My husband is trying to make me feel bad about having it done; he has gone on to tell me how painful it is and how bad he is going to feel. I know its the right thing to do the dog has aggression toward other animals and bolts out the front door at any chance he gets. Then it impossible to get him back. Do you have any advice on how not to think I am doing something horrible to my dog? I do have a female that We had spayed but she was 5 1/2 months old when it was done. My husband says we have waited to long and now its just wrong. I know this is short notice but I need some advice.

6. Urinating in the house and when excited

We adopted a stray a few months ago. Here lately he has been peeing in the house...which never use to happen. He'll do it when we play w/ him inside or outside...he will even pee on us while we are playing. It's like he gets too exicted and has to. His pee has a much more strong odor than our other dog. Could there be something else wrong?
