So anything you can tell me about neutering will be helpful. Will he be very uncomfortable afterwards and for how long? He is also very small right now at 2lbs and I'm worried that he is too light to get anesthesia...
Thanks in advance! |
I had mine neutered at 15 months. I had no problems with him before he was neutered because he is 100% housebroke. Although, most think that if you do it before 6 months then it could help prevent marking and hiking their legs and sometimes dominant/aggressive behaviors.
