I had Judge done at 1.5 years and if I had to do it again I would get it done much earlier. It was really hard on him and I attribute that to his size.
Here are some pictures.

My vet wanted to give Bubba the snip at 5 months old! I thought No way.. seems waaay to young to me.

Hubby and I talked about it and we are going to wait as long as possible. I also read about the growth plate issue.. and I figure as long as he behaves and doesn't get too obnoxious we will let Bubba keep them for awhile. He's 10 months now and so far he's still a loveable friendly guy. He's still very much a puppy though.. and from what my vet said is between 12-18 months is when we *could* see behaviours develop. If we do then he will get the big snip.

when do pups usually start humping? I know it's a weird question, but Cooper, who is 12 weeks today, started about a week and a half ago. He curls up Sam's rug and does it there, and only there. Should we stop him? He tried doing it to my leg, but I quickly put an end to that.
