Episode description

Are you confused about the best time to spay or neuter your dog, or have questions about whether this procedure is really necessary in the first place?  If so, you're not alone!

Spay/neuter recommendations used to be very simple - have it done, as early as possible.  But in recent years, new research on how sex hormones influence growth, behavior, and certain types of medical issues have made this a much more complex topic than we previously believed.

Join Dr. Jen for an overview of the factors you should consider when deciding when (or if) to spay or neuter your best friend.
