Weeks or months of slightly slower growth alternate with mini growth spurts in most children. Kids actually tend to grow a bit faster in the spring than during other times of the year! A major growth spurt happens at the time of puberty, usually between 8 to 13 years of age in girls and 10 to 15 years in boys. Puberty lasts about 2 to 5 years.
Spaying is the process whereby a veterinarian surgically removes your petâs ovaries and uterus. Itâs best if pets are spayed around 6 months of age, although new research suggests that large breed dogs should be spayed later, around 18-22 months, to help reduce risk for cancer and joint problems.
