Now it has me thinking more on having him neutered, I am terrified with the prospect though, he is 1.9 pounds...thats tiny, and is almost 8 months old....the vet said to wait till maybe 10 or 11 months old and we will reevaluate, then.
Have you have him tested for Liver Shunt? He's really tiny, and it's possible there's a reason he's so small. The sooner you discover whether he has it, the less chance permanent damage will occur, and in many cases diet alone will help. You would not want to mate him if he has Liver Shunt; it is passed genetically.
