The humane society gets their puppies spayed and neutered at two months. So yes, most people say 4-6 months. Now is the time to do it. Price just depends on each vet. Expect maybe $100-200. Call your vet and ask.<br><b>References : </b><br> Most vets say between 4-6 months but honestly you can get it done earlier. The humane society gets their puppies spayed and neutered at two months.

Most male dogs don't reach sexual maturity until at least six to eight months old. It is better to get them fixed before you start noticing their humping and leg raising stage. It cuts down the risk of behavior problems down the line. I would also recommend going to a vet that dosen't use a lazer to do the surgery. I took two of the foster dogs for their nuterings, and after they both got horrible infections I switched vets. The lazer can damage sensitive tissue around the area they are cutting if it gets too close. It will actually burn it. I didn't know this until I took the dog to a vet that neutered the typical way of cutting. I also noticed that dogs that get the lazer castration seem to have extra skin that hangs between their legs while the dogs that have normal castrations don't. To me I don't like lazer surgery, but it is whatever you want. I hope this helps.<br><b>References : </b><br> You pup is at the prime age to be neutered.
