Carol you are so wonderful for taking Cami into your home. She's such a lucky girl.:D:DI didn't think to much of this and just did it until the Vets started doing babies!!!
I started researching this issue and I had stray dogs come up that were older
and not neutered but had no bad behavior so I didn't neuter them...no problems!
Cami is 5/yo and I'm going to spay her to spare her going thru heat cycles. She
came here 4 months ago unspayed and in heat so I've had to wait.
Humping is not always a hormonal thing.
If going to spay or neuter, I would wait until they have achieved full growth of
skeletal & hormonal needs, about 18 months for bullies. Or some problem unable
to solve and life is miserable. If it's just humping, try to solve that before you pay
and go thru unnessacery surgery. Just my opinion...GOD bless & good luck!
