| I'm not sure when they are sexually mature, but I never had that problem with Toto. I had him neutered when he was 6 months old. Also has never marked furniture or anything.

| It varies from male to male... good time to consider neutering him

Donating YT Addict | My littel one is only 12 1/2 weeks old and I caught him humping his stuffed panda I think it's more of a dominance thing right now. I do plan on neutering him by 5 months though...

| The vet told me not to neuter until Charlie was atleast 6 months old and lost all his baby teeth. Charlie will be 5 months old on the 12th of this month and has not lost any baby teeth. I dont want him makring everything in the house and he has started humping things. |

| Slade lifted his leg at 15 wks, and I went in the house to call the clinic promptly! He was neutered a wk later and I have yet to have any problems w/ him humping, marking, etc. (ok, well my best friend has a boxer that Slades likes to try to hump... but other than that... he hasn't attempted anythign!)
