We feel that desexing should be done with careful considerations for the circumstances of your individual dog. We must not forget that these are major surgeries, albeit routine. Along with their obvious purpose, our dogs depend on sex hormones to grow and mature too.

​

If you feel that spaying or neutering is the best route for your dog then we do suggest that 18-24 months is a more appropriate age for your dog to have this procedure carried out. This means that your dog's bones will have finished developing and the urethra will have grown too (relevant particularly for HUA dogs).
