LOL! My dad's dog, a rat terrier mix, who is like 5 or 6 now didn't start lifting his leg til he was like 3 haha. He squatted and still prefers to squat haha. I didn't think that would prevent them from lifting their leg, which actually doesn't bother me, but I thought it might help prevent marking.

Most of my girls mark- especially if someone is goin into heat; but the only ones who don't Mark (often) are pop and kuki- ironically enough the only two still intact!
My Toby only learned to hike his leg once he saw kitty do it, so being the 6 year old man of the house he couldn't be having his girls be more manly than him! He also never marked until kitty showed up.
I'm not sure I'd want a dog altered that young- does that not mess up both physical and mental development?
The girls I had spayed preheat are both 'special' girls- river is scrapping with poppet now pop is getting ready for a heat, and kandi is an 11yr old 4m puppy (with the more annoying puppy traits!) but everyone else grew up nicely.
(sorry for going off topic btw)

Dazzlin's dogs are all soo beautiful- I want one! Lol

My Peyton was neutered before he came home. He is a perfect little boy! No problems with it at all!

Haha! I tend to rant and go off topic all the time, don't feel bad! And I thought they were precious, I talked to my hubby and he was like getting on waiting list seems to be a good idea. YAY!! [:

Good! I'm glad to hear from someone that has experience with their baby being neutered that young. Thanks! [:
