This is how we get ours tired out. Sleeps well and gives us peace for the evening.

Where to get a puppy?

Oops….looks like I waited too long and Lucy just started her first heat cycle today…
Now I can’t take her to training because the other dogs will go nuts.
I’ll take a kid and train them in her place.

Fred gets snipped in a few months. The kids don't appreciate when he lays on them and they can feel his balls.
Maybe I’m old fashioned but I didn’t think they cut off the balls when they do the op.
I know when I got snipped I got to keep my nut.

Ya, they do - dogs and cats are castrated which cuts off production of the hormones that drive reproductive behaviours.
They won’t go nuts when they smell a ***** in heat, will be less aggressive, and most loose their enthusiasm for dry humping.
Well I’ll be damned. Glad to have kept mine then.
Now need diapers and more careful during walks. Seeing red spots around the house.
There’s lots of debate of spaying before or post first heat. Too late now to decide.
Humans get tubes cut, animals get balls removed. For dogs/cats that's an expensive operation. For livestock, it's an elastic band. They sell rubber balls for owners that want their dogs to have something swinging. Iirc Humans can use them too if they lose a ball and want balance back.
They place we got Fred likes to neuter around a year old. Some places do it really early. Like with the girls, there is some debate over growth/behaviour benefits/downsides. They said if he got too humpy, call them and they do it earlier.
With male dogs they like to leave them with nuts until they are fully grown/ developed. It can be a challenge . Females my vet says before first heat / or after doesn’t really matter . Puppies wearing the cone of shame can be harder to manage around the house than a grown dog . Too rambunctious.

Our vet also told us before or after doesn't matter.
I have no backing on this, but feel that giving her at least the first heat allows for more development...but I'm no vet, and when the vet says it doesn't really make a difference...only the walks will be more annoying with dogs trying to mount her.
That and the blood. Diapers on order.
We didn't use diapers with our female.
We used an old pair of underwear from my son.
The slit in the crotch area was perfect for her tail to go through.
Her first hear was the worse. Now, it's barely anything.
