I was told by AKC they will not give an ILP to a dog with a vasectomy because it can be reversed.

That's funny, we have multiple dogs that have been rescued and adopted, who are spayed/neutered and have ILP numbers and compete in obedience, agility, etc....some are Therapy Dogs......It is my personal experience that AKC has never declined an ILP number to a deserving dog.
