How much does Niko weigh? I just think it is really too soon to neuter him. A couple of reasons - 1) he's still small and growing and it's best to wait and let him finish growing, 2) Niko will most likely end up needing some puppy teeth pulled but you can't know that yet. If you wait until like 7 or 8 months, you'll know if he retained teeth and can get them pulled while he's under anesthesia being neutered. The less often you have to put these littles under, the better.
I would wait.
Deb - sounds like Teeka is progressing really well! The fact that she wants to rough house is good and bad. Bad because you need to keep her still but good because it means she's feeling good  |
Yup! She has always been a little strong willed! I just called the vet for an appointment to get her staples removed and it is set for the 26th! They prefer to wait until almost 2 weeks.
