Will neutering my 10 mo. old dog cause him to calm down?
My dog is a 10 month old male german shepherd. He's begun showing dominant behavior toward me and aggressive behavior toward other dogs. I've read many articles on this matter, is many seem to think that neutering the dog once the behaviors are already established will cause little to no change in his behavior. Is this true? Will neutering him -not- change his dominant and aggressive behavior?
I'd really like to take him to doggy daycare where he can mingle with other dogs and be more socialized. Unfortunately, I don't know if I'll be able to with his aggressive tendencies - although he only SEEMS aggressive from a distance, once up close to another dog he's playful and happy.
It will probably help with the dominant behavior, but to be completely honest, I was told that my dogs would calm down once they were spayed, and none of them ever did. I had one that actually jumped a six-foot-fence an hour after I brought her home from the surgery.
Neutering might help with the dog's urges to mate or dominate, but I think your best bet would be obedience classes and training. You don't want an aggressive dog. That can lead to trouble, but a basic training class should take care of that. Just run down to your closest Petsmart or even the vet.
