I love my little girl just the way she is and I would hate if she was a different puppy after but I just want to do what is best for her. Has anyone else ever experienced this or heard of drastic changes in the dogs afterwards??
all my dogs are spayed and neutered and only my big golden is chubby and that's because she won't exercise! haha nothing to do with being spayed lol she's just lazy! but when I had harley neutered nothing changed.. except for the view of his rear end.. Neuter really is cuter! lol

there are always rumors that spaying/neutering your pets "change" them but in my experience with over 11 dogs I've had in my life.. no issues, no changes. they still stay the same size, same hair and same personality

Oh yea, and at the shelter I work at every animal is spayed/neutered as soon as they enter our facility and no changes there either.
