Spaying and neutering your dog is almost
always a good choice. It can prevent bad behavior, like going potty in your
home, and it can ensure he doesn’t have puppies that can’t find homes. The
question is when you should have your pooch fixed.
The best time to spay or neuter a dog is
before they reach sexual maturity. That usually means having your dog fixed
somewhere between six and nine months old. However, canines can be fixed as
young as four months old.
However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t
fix your dog if he’s older than 9 months! Canines can be fixed at any age. The
difference is that it takes older dogs a bit longer to recover than it does
puppies.
If you want to have your dog spayed or
neutered, schedule an appointment with
your vet Cherry Hill, NJ.
