NEUTICLES?!

Gregg Miller mortgaged his home and maxed out his credit cards to mass produce his invention - prosthetic testicles for neutered dogs.

What started 10 years ago with an experiment on an unwitting Rottweiler named Max has turned into a thriving mail-order business. And on Thursday night Miller's efforts earned him a dubious yet strangely coveted honour: the Ig Nobel Prize for medicine. "Considering my parents thought I was an idiot when I was a kid, this is a great honour... I wish they were alive to see it." he said.

Miller has sold more than 150,000 of his Neuticles, more than doubling his $500,000 US investment. The silicone implants come in different sizes, shapes, weights and degrees of firmness. More here.
