Mojo was neutered the week of Thanksgiving and he hasn't gained any (yet). But the vet told me to wean him down to his food in the morning and just alittle bit in the evening and to make sure he gets moving throughout the day.

I don't know if it is true or not. When we got Luke, he was 2 1/2 and we had him neutered because that was too much "male" in the house - that calmed him down - calmed down the, "I'm the male of the house" side of it - but he is still very active!

I think that each dog is different, so they may all have different effects of the spay/neuter? I don't know though....all of our animals have always been "fixed" and we have never noticed any "real" change in their weight.
