Female pup with neutered males

5 replies

I’m looking to possibly get a third pup later in the year.
I already have two neutered males. Both have never shown any attention to females on walks nor have ever humped.

I am considering a female pup but am worried about her seasons upsetting my boys She would be spayed at the right time but I’m not really able to separate the dogs. I would mostly be around during the day to supervise
Has anyone introduced a bitch puppy to a male household successfully? Or am I asking for trouble?

I’ve got a neutered male and an unspayed female. He’s never been a humper but he’s on her morning, noon and night when she’s in season. It really pisses her off, so I’m getting her done in the next few months. I’d expect the same with your males, and there’ll likely be fights between them over her. It wouldn’t put me off getting her, but I’d be looking to get her spayed asap

Mine has been neutered for years, and tbh he normally sticks to humping the odd boy, but if there's a female coming into season he will be very interested. There's been one or two occasions where he's been so interested in a young female in the park I've asked if it's possible she's coming into season and that's when the penny dropped for the other owners.

Ignoring dogs on walks is one thing, but an in-season dog in the home is a whole other picture - personally it's not something I would take on unless I could physically separate the dogs when I was out or unable to supervise. Neutered dogs can still tie with females and cause injury or pain.

Both my boys were neutered young but they absolutely know when a bitch is in season.

Last time they were in kennels they had a fight because someone left a bitch in season without telling the kennel owner. She was walking them past and they just turned on each other.
They did get over it, but it took a while and the risk is that in the home two males will continue fighting.

Will stick with boys 😉
