What age to neuter?
What age to neuter?Eddie is now six and a half months. He's humping everything and doing big boy leg cocked wee's.
The vet said we can have him neutered any time from 7 months but a friend has told me this is too young and I should wait until he's a year... I want to do what's right for him, are there any benefits to waiting or should I get on with it? Lucy x

If he is humping everything, tell him to stop that and give him something else to do. Welcome to the World of Kevin & Perry, puberty has arrived !. He will soon be stomping upstairs and banging doors http://www.busheyk9.co.uk
If you can't be a good example........ you will just have to be a horrible warning
Re: What age to neuter?I'm hoping he will be easier to train than the two human (ish) teenagers in the house I shall get him booked in for the beginning of the Easter holidays so Izzy will be around to give him extra snuggles if he's feeling sore Lucy x

Having four of them. I didn't have any better success with them as I went along I say children should be locked away from 13 until they are 22. http://www.busheyk9.co.uk

Re: What age to neuter?Little boy doggie, I'd get him neutered now and get it out of the way. Our vets neuter dogs from about six months of age onwards. xx

Now don't go getting over ambitious - teenagers cannot be trained on any level We've mainly had rescue dogs at about six months to about ten months through our lives and all have already been neutered. Never had a problem. People still to this day spout the "older is better" mantra but the truth is older is easier and vets used to be lazy and lacking competition. Now there's a veterinary surgery within reach of most homes and they are better trained, so older isn't easier really - just marginally smaller. @Sheldonatsov

Re: What age to neuter?He's going in at 8.30 tomorrow morning - to say I'm a bit nervous is an understatement

Like all males though, he will feel sorry for himself for a long time [center]Happy to have shown Titchy Clucker a little corner of France[/center]
Sara XxX Re: What age to neuter?Ha ha A day or so and he will have forgotten about it.
It is all outside the body. So it isn't like having a female neutered. Your other half may have tears in his eyes for some time ! http://www.busheyk9.co.uk
