My husband and I want to breed Teddy at least once so we can have a puppy. He's about 8 months old now and the vet said he needs to get his baby teeth out soon. The price for it is around $230. If we get him neutered at the same time, it will be only $230 for both surgeries. But if we get the baby teeth pulled out at seperate times than the neutering, than we have to pay for 2 seperate surgeries. My question is, how long should we wait until we get the baby teeth out? We don't want to have to pay double. We want to breed him asap and then get everything done because we know that dogs tend to have less health problems if they are neutered. How would we know Teddy is ready to breed. Our trainer says he probably will be shooting blanks until about 8 months...which is where he is at right now.
