The earliest you can neuter is.....

Anyone?
Harry is now 16 weeks. Whats the soonest he can be done?
He has got a little pair of "marbles" already, and is getting a bit "frisky" with the cushions etc

Have to bear in mind that Harry was the surviving runty pup, and as such is quite small (though quite a chunky monkey spangle!).
Vet (saw the locum as out vet is on his hols) seems to think he needs to be at least 7-8 months old

I was always of the opinion it was more 5-6 months?

Here as long as they are 4 months and have finished their first vaccinations they have be done.

Some people are still in the old boat of not until they are a year but the thought that it stunts growth has since been wiped.

If he is displaying frisky behaviour now and he is a meduim size dog I would have no qualms castrating mine at 6 months, it's only really large or giant breeds I would give to the 12 month mark, unless they where showing randy behaviour, but there will be loads of different opinions.....it's down to you muhahahahahaha

 

[joeanne]

He is stunted anyway....in both size and mental capacity so makes no odds there!

Cayla he is a rather small springer. About a 1/3 smaller than the other puppies. He will struggle to be classed as a giant breed.....unless you are referring to his rather large personality!

 

[CAYLA]

Lol.....then chop em off IMO......it may help him grown an extra few inches

Can u wait 8 weeks?

 

[ofcourseyoucan]

[joeanne]
