I've always had boy dogs and our previous boys were all castrated around 6 months old, but they were humping and generally being typical boy dogs.
Murphy is 7 months now. He's a Scottie Dog, incredibly well behaved, laid back (we are yet to hear him growl) and no humping whatsoever. Both DH and I expressed our surprise that neither of us have ever seen him hump anything at all.
With this in mind, and the fact that he's such a good little pup already, for the first time I'm questioning whether to have him castrated or not.
I know there are benefits with having the castration, but I realise there are also benefits with not having it as well.
Any advice?
