    Neuter question

    Zeke has to get neutered in a week or two :[ Will that mean he won't grow anymore?

    Nope - that just depends on his age! Some shelters will neuter very young pups, and they still grow up just fine!

    All neutering does is keep the testosterone from flowing!!


    Don't buy while shelter dogs die!!

    Nebo was neutered 4 months, and he's still growing. Good luck to Zeke, I'm sure he'll be just fine!

    He'll keep growing and he'll be just fine!!! You wouldn't believe how fast the boys bounce back.

    We spay & neuter pups as young as 8 weeks at work and there are never any problems. They just have to weigh 5 lbs for it to be safely done.

    Drake was 35 lbs when he was neutered, and now he is a whopping 95 lbs!! Don't worry about Zeke, he'll grow up just fine
