Edgar is approx 7months old. He is humping a little bit and showing his little thing to us (occasionally). I asked my husband if he thought I should get Edgar neutered to calm him down and he said:
"It's because he's young. He won't do it as much when he gets older. But he's your dog and it's whatever you want."

My husband had a small dog when he was younger and they didn't have him neutered...so, is he right? I'm not sure if i want Edgar to go thru the sugery and i can bear the occasional "REallY happY to SEE yoUs!"

I know that dogs will still hump after being neutered. But does the number decline with age?

thanks in advance!
