When young male dogs exhibit excessive aggressive tendencies, especially during dog training, it may benefit the puppy to be neutered. If you are planning on breeding the dog, it is not an option, but also consider that the aggression in the dog might be passed down and you might want to considered breeding a different dog.

The operation of castration entails the surgical removal of both testicles which usually alters the hormonal balance of the dog and can make him more calm. This operation can change his overall tendencies of wanting to mate and often reduces his desire to constantly mark his territory. A common misconception is that neutering makes a dog docile and will not want to guard your property or family, but this surgery does not do reduce the value of your dog as a wonderful protector and household companion.
