A male dog can be neutered any time after eight weeks of age. A few years ago, most veterinarians advised waiting until puberty hit at about six months, and some still make that recommendation. Talk to your veterinarian about whatâs best for your dog.
This does not, however, mean that a male dog is less protective of the house or family. Neutered dogs make good guard dogs because they are less likely to leave the property or house. Neutering your male pet also improves his health by reducing the risk of prostate disease, testicular cancer and infections.
