I have an 8months old golden retriever mix puppy. I want get him neutered. Is it recommended? If so, what are the options? I recently moved to Bluru and is there any recommendations for hospitals or vets?

Yes. Neutering comes with an option of surgery having both advantages and disadvantages. But the former overweighs latter. The advantages include birth control, reduction of aggression (with other behavioural issues) and possibility of prostate or testicular cancer. Disadvantages being gaining weight, which can be controlled through feeding habits.

Hi, the doctor rightly pointed out the advantages and disadvantage these will help you to decide whether or not to get Rony operated. Also I would suggest waiting for him to turn at least 1.5 to 2 years old before you get him neutered, if there is any urgency eg a female unneutered dog in the same house you can get it done at this age but it's usually healthier to do it when the pet is skeletally mature. Also by that time it'll be clearer to you if it's really necessary.

That's really helpful. In fact that was next question. About the appropriate age to get it done. Thanks a lot both.

I have seen a few posts mentioning about dogs not eating food. This video will certainly help - Just the way we humans prefer fresh food, our pets also love having fresh food. Take some time out every day to cook fresh veggies every day. I Boil carrots, beans, sweet potatoes , potatoes, 1 spoon rice and 1 spoon dal , 1 boiled egg and half spoon oil for 4-5 whistles. Don't restrict to these vegetables alone. I keep changing the veggies.. like - peas , disco pumpkin, cabbage etc Add 3 spoons of your kibble to make it crunchier. Trust me, Leo never had an issue with the food. He eats every single part of the meal twice a day 😋
