His desire was to create, manufacture and distribute new products that had never existed before. In
1992 Miller created patentedNeuticles - testicular implants for pets. His love of animals and objection to the traditional form of neutering prompted him to risk everything for its development. After spending nearly $500,000 Neuticles were introduced in1995 . To date over 200,000 pets worldwide have been Neuticled providing pet owners an option when altering their pet."Neuticles provide the caring pet owner an option," Miller said. "An option between whole and unwhole - natural verses unnatural." He said that Neuticles encourage pet owners to neuter that simply would not before. As a result pet over population is being reduced and pets are living happier, healthier and longer lives.
Miller recently had his book: "Going Going NUTS!" published which details his invention of Neuticles.
