when it comes to dog genitals, lunker is as serious as a fat girl at a cheese sale.

Neco is only 10 months, rule of thumb for large dogs like a lab is to wait till at least 18 to 24 months. Dad has a 1 year old female goldendoodle and he doesnt want her bred until his male bernedoodle comes to age. I thought that since a vasectomy would be the answer to allow him to develop and still allow him to enjoy playing with dads female goldendoodle.
Hey worm how is your wife doing did you get everything figured out with your finances.

Normally people neuter a dog to remedy unwanted behavior like marking, running off for a female in heat, some aggression towards other dogs, etc. A vasectomy would change behavior 0%. You’d have the same dog, but when it’s mounting somebody’s female dog you could tell them “don’t worry, he’s shooting blanks now”.

Not always is the case for all dogs breeds some dogs will still do all those things that you listed. For one thing I probably should be discussing this with my vet instead of using a forum.

Hmmmmm, I had both my labs neutered at 6 months and never had a problem. Daughter and son also had their labs done at 6 months with no issues. We used the same vet. Lunker maybe talk to a different vet. :;:huh
