In Regilna they have a spay/neuter program. If you get your dog fixed between 6 and 8 months its cheaper than if you wait. The program is funded by the City and by the vets. I assume its done to try to eliminate unwanted puppies that end up at the Humane Society. But seeing that the vets are the ones doing the surgery, they must think its safe.

Is there any proof that early spaying or neutering makes the male dogs tall and lanky and looking like females? What about a female - what do people believe happens to a female if you spay around six months old?
