Lacey, Bear is 6 months. I appreciate it. My vet owns two Chis. He is the resident small dog expert at the hospital I go too. He said it wouldn't be a good idea to wait because the boys start marking. I was kinda wanting to wait, but I talked to another vet that works at the ER clinic that I know and he said he'd do it at 6 months too for a boy. I know they usually wait longer for girls. I am also having him chipped. Does any of this make sense to you? I appreciate the prayers.
