Romeo is not neutered (yet..) I'm going to wait until hes a bit older . Hes about 1 1/2 now and well, he doesn't mark, wander, hump, act aggresively, or anything like that! so I was wondering. is that normal? Isn't that what everyone says un neutered dogs do?
The not marking thing was a big surprise. I even bought a weenie wrap anticipating his arrival. but he doesn't mark inside at all.. he only marks trees and mailboxes and bushes lol Everyone had me worried that this unnetuered chihuahua would be peeing on every upright thing in my house! lol
He is just a friendly, nice, well behaved little dog with just the greatest personality and im worried that neutering him will change him somehow :/ make him less..I dunno, eager lol Right now hes just so peppy about everything in life. always ready for a walk, a game, to meet someone new..
He loves to cuddle and is loving and sweet. hes also very motivated and trainable, which from what I hear.. is not so common with chihuahuas lol
Will neutering change him?
His breeder is giving me free reign mostly on the neutering thing and when it would be best to do it. she likes to wait until atleast 2 I think she said.. & hes on limited registration regardless lol
I dunno, i guess im just being a baby about this but I figure if it ain't broke.. why fix it? hes so small (well hes average for a chihuahua but still @ 5.5 pounds, still pretty small for a dog) and Im just worrying about putting him through the surgery :/
I would really love however for people to stop trying to pressure me into breeding him.. that is getting annoying tho he has so much hair back there that I just tell people he's neutered anyway lol oh and its not just breeding him with other chihuahuas, ive gotten all kinds of offers lol yorkies, shnauzers, pomeranians.. its like they dont care as long as the pups will be small lol
