Bailey will be 6 months in 3 weeks and I plan on doing it around that time :) |
We had Lexi spayed at the age of 6 months. The only requirement by our vet, other than age, was that she wouldn't do the spaying until she reached 2 pounds. She barely made the 2 pounds at 6 months. Lexi had absolutely no problems. |
If I had it to do over again, I would have neutered Max as early as possible. I read that they're doing it as young as 3 months now. I wasn't going to neuter him because he has no access to females. We live in NYC in a 6th floor apartment and I keep him leashed in the park too. What I didn't know was that small male dogs have a tendency to mark and I now am having a world of trouble breaking him of the habit of peeing in the house on the rug, on the couch, in his crate, etc. You know how strong-willed Yorkies can be and I now have to show him that I'm the boss, not him. If I had neutered him before he had begun to mark, I might have been able to avoid this. He was nicely trained before puberty. This retraining is annoying and tedious. I'm not telling you what to do, just sharing my own experience with you. Judy |
