IN AN ARTICLE called The Secret Price of Pets, The New York Times revealed that Kim Kardashian’s pet dog, Rocky, had been neutered.
Pretty standard. Right? Well, not really. That’s because after Kim had Rocky neutered, she followed up the procedure by getting her dog ‘Neuticled’. A Neuticle is a ‘prosthetic testicle’ for neutered pets, invented by Gregg A. Miller in 1995.
Since 1995, more than 500,000 animals have been fitted with Miller’s ‘Neuticles’ so that pet owners can insure that their animals can “maintain their pets dignity and self-esteem.”
Miller believes that after a dog is neutered, they are “turned into a eunuch” when their owner doesn’t care enough to get them a pair of fake balls to “maintain its dignity and self-esteem”. Talk about fragile masculinity.
Apparently, Kim briefed Miller before the procedure, telling him “I don’t like big balls on dogs.”
Well, if we ever needed evidence that there’s such a thing as having too much money, there it is.
If spending thousands of dollars on fake balls for your dogs isn’t enough to satisfy your senseless passion for wastefulness, Neuticles also have an online store where they sell merchandise like $18 mouse-pads, t-shirts and earrings with fake testicles on them:
