I obtained my first pedigreed cat in 1970 and have never looked back. In 1971, I obtained my first Abyssinian which has become my primary breed. In addition, I have bred Manx and Persians. Currently, besides the Abyssinians, I am also breeding Maine Coons.
1 Recently, the American Veterinary Medical Association endorsed Early Age Neutering, which can be done as early as two months or two pounds, but the average age is four months. 2  There may also be laws in your area that require your dog to be spayed or neutered by a certain age.
How old is too old to fix a dog? My recently adopted 8 year old golden is unfixed. My husband and I are trying to weigh the pros and cons of getting her fixed at this advanced age. She is also overweight, which I've heard can lead to complications. Asked by Member 979164 on Apr 17th 2010 in Health & Wellness.
