We're dressing the dogs up, and my stepdaughter is bringing her friend's dog over all dressed up, too - and we're all going to hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters!

My stepdaughter thinks it's a cute idea - and it is. But I think it's dangerous. Max is 91 lbs and it sounds like this little yorky is about 5 lbs. It's still male. You know - she's 24. She's old enough to know better.

I can't tell her not to bring the dog, because she has some psychiatric problems and would get extremely upset. So I told her that she'd better keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't get hurt. I am not going to put Max in his crate and make him miserable when he'll be so excited about meeting all the little trick-or-treaters. If anybody has to go in a crate, it will be the dog she brings with her.

Hopefully nothing will happen, but I'm nervous about it.

What do you think? How do most neutered males react when another (also neutered) male comes into their territory?
