Donating YT 500 Club Member | I've never heard that spaying calms females. I thought neutering would not only calm my Guinness down but keep him from humping everything.......well that humping only got worse! She just needs continued socialization, it will hopefully get better!

| Ok so I'm slow, I'm just seeing this now. To the OP, how is your baby doing now? Is she all "balanced" out now? I had also heard that spaying would calm down Uni. Also when a customer comes in who has an unspayed dog she will quietly growl at them, and a lot of times, there will be a group of people come in and she will growl at some and not others. i will ask them if their dogs are boys or girls. If they say girls (I already know this by uni's behaviour) I ask are they spayed. the ones she growls at are not and the ones she doesn't growl at they are spayed. I always thought maybe it was a jealousy thing.

| Just seeing this too! Yorkies (male and female) are prone to humping, as compared to other breeds. My female had a bed she prefered to hump on, when I remove it, the behavior stops. It can take a few months for their hormones to realign, and you may still see humping, if it's a Yorkie! As for calming down ... my female in season goes a bit nutso, won't listen, is a bit more hyper than when not in season, when other dogs are around. She has her own mind, in a sense. My spayed female is more level month to month, not calm, but reasonable, if this makes any sense! My 13 year old males humps my cat, my spayed female humps her pink bed, my intact female hasn't humped anything yet! Intact dogs are more territorial (may fight) more amongst themselves than spayed/neutered dogs, but depends on each individual dog and personality.
