[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lab, golden, tolerant mutt pup. It'd get a young dog or a puppy from a reputable breeder or a good byb who raises hunting stock, since most of the show stock i see is structurally unsound. I'd trade the inconvenience of a pup for the luxury of knowing exactly what training it's getting: make the pup everywhere you can past its shots. Do some research as well, because the recommended amount of shots and such has changed and not all the vets are aware. Be prepared to keep your pup on the lean side, and [b]DON'T spay or neuter until it is well over a year old[/b]. [/quote]

Please don't say this as if it's a universal recommendation. The issue is very controversial, with evidence both for neutering early and for neutering late. I suggest people do their own research, talk to their vet, and come to their own decision about what age to spay/neuter their pet.[/quote]

There is a huge correlation between getting a dog spayed after 9 months, not breeding it an the onset of cancer. Particularly females--just like with human females the more unfertilised period cycles over your lifetime, the greater chance of various types of cancer. It's the hormones, sheeple.[/quote]
