darkprince45 12/02/17 8:07:15 PM #20:	Man, I kinda want a female dog. But with my boy I don't know. I don't have much experience with having two different gender dogs. What do you guys think? Play it safe get a boy? Our German shepherd isn't even fixed yet. We did a bit of research and it said best to wait for a year for German shepherds because they develop hip problems at a bigger rate with early neutered Last thing I want is my 10 month old walking around trying to hump a 3 month old husky --- Cubs, Rockies, Grizzlies, Patriots. <cite>darkprince45 posted [p:891476388] in It's kind ...

Taharqa_ 12/02/17 8:10:02 PM #21:	Hip dysplasia is mostly genetic. Spaying/Neutering on large dogs should not be done until they're at least 18 months old to give the growth plates time to close.
