Hey y’all, I’ve been considering getting my dog neutered for a while now. I’d like to ‘cause all of his little dog friends are intact bitches and I’d he can act very pushy around them depending on the day. (ESPECIALLY the weeks after a heat cycle has ended.) I’d also like to do it for the all...

I have a 2 years Shiba Inu and everyone in my family told me to neuter him, not because he is aggressive, because he is not aggressive at all. There is just one creature that he hates and that is my cat, however he learned that he shouldn't hurt the cat. My mother, and my father and some other...

We have an intact 10-12 year old rescued GSD mix who has never had the issues that usually come with having an intact male dog. No marking problems, no escape attempts, no chasing after females. He's been a fantastic dog. We recently got a female puppy who was spayed pretty early due to the...

New Dog Owner! 7 Month old neutered four days ago. Both testicles were retained (and found in stomach). Vet was great and so kind; we are worried about the glued incision. Should we text the vet photos/our concerns? Odey (puppy) is acting/eating fine.

Hey all, we have a 15-week-old golden retriever who has only one descended testicle. I’m hoping #2 drops by 6 months, but who knows. If it doesn’t, I definitely understand the dangers of the retained testicle and want it removed. However, I also understand it’s important for a dog not to be...

Hi there, My 9 month old Corgi mix baby just got neutered this week. It was supposed to happen two months ago, but the adoption agency kept "forgetting" to send the certificate needed by the Vet. But, that's a whole different story. So, he was Neutered, and had no issues during surgery. He was...

I'm getting a border terrier in two weeks and I've been getting mixed messages on the best age to neuter. Some sites state it should be done earlier to avoid issues such as testicular cancer while other sites state that it should be done later as neutering too soon can impact the development of...

Hello! I just got my 6mo puppy neutered on Friday and I have a few questions regarding it. He's gone back to being a little terror (in the best way, of course) and I've been keeping the cone on him at night and when I'm gone at work. Otherwise I just watch him and stop him from licking the...

My vet says yes, the nonprofit where I got him says no. Does anyone have an opinion? Also, the vet said that I could give trazadone (which he takes occasionally for separation anxiety) at the same time as rimadyl, but that wouldn't solve the problem (for some reason--I think they're really...

I'm a new dog owner, and Enzo just came back from the vet. He's passed out now, but was whining a bit before and I'm concerned he might be in pain. I called the vet and she said that he was just given pain meds post-op, and I shouldn't be concerned, but that "I would be the best judge of whether...

Hi, We have a 9 week old bulldog puppy. We introduced him to the bullystick yesterday. I have 3 questions, if somebody can please advice: 1. Is it too soon to be giving him a bullystick? 2. How long can he be left chewing away on the bullystick? 3. On another note- how soon can we get him...

My puppy is a Maltese/Shih-Tzu mix and he is 8 months old. He was perfectly house trained and never had accidents. I leave a pad out in the living room of my apartment and anytime he needs to urinate he goes to his pad, circles a few times and goes on the pad. He was good about it for a few...

Within two days of bringing Kidogo home he started humping his brand new dog bed. He was 12 weeks old then and other whippet owners assured me that it was just the puppy excitement, was not sexual, and it would go away, there was no need to try to stop it at this age. At that time he was just...

Hello All, It is Friday and its been 6 days since my gsd got neutered. I just got him and he is a rescue, although he is friendly with me, his aggression isn't all that great yet, thus making it difficult to take to the vet. Anyway, this is his incision, can anyone PLEASE tell me if its normal...

We recently got a new dog, a Rottie mix, who has been doing really well in training and so far we only have one problem - whenever are unsprayed female goes outside, he begins to whine and run around the house. He recently got fixed as well, and I know he will still have those coarse feelings...

Hi guys, in my other thread I was asking for what extra information I should know before and after neutering my dog. We scheduled with the vet to have our boy neutered this wednesday, so I have been doing some more research... What I know is that if we neuter a medium/big size dog at around 2...

Hi guys, So after some time, me and my husband finally decided to neuter our male dog. He is 1 year and 10 months old now, we waited for him to reach almost 2 years old so that he could complete his growth with the hormones before he gets neutered. I have been researching over the internet and...
