Hi Folks,
I recently heard that it is no longer recommended to spay/neuter large breed dogs earlier than 8 months of age due to bone loss at maturity.  It is still recommended to spay/neuter small and medium dog breeds as early as 12 to 16 weeks of age.   Has anyone else heard this from a veterinary school in California state?
Cheers,
JF-V
