The best time to neuter a Golden Retriever is before the first estrus, around six to eight months of age. During this period, the dog is basically fully sexually mature, and the hormone levels in the dog's body are still in a balanced and stable state when not in estrus, which reduces the negative impact of postoperative hormones. Dogs need to be fasted 6-8 hours before neutering to avoid vomiting during the surgery. After the sterilization operation, the golden retriever needs to be given anti-inflammatory and pain relief, and an Elizabethan ring must be worn.

What should be paid attention to after golden retriever sterilization surgery:

1. After neutering, the dog’s mood is unstable and may show aggression. Don’t worry, this It is a normal reaction to pain, and the owner only needs to comfort and take care of it.

2. If the dog has pain, infection, or other problems after surgery, contact the veterinarian in time.

3. After the operation, the dog will show some uncomfortable symptoms, such as opening its mouth and panting, etc., which is normal.
