Hi everyone. I'm currently looking for puppies, and I wanted to have both a male and female dog together. My family previously had both a male and female and we wanted to recreate that dynamic. The issue is that we want to get them both at the same time, and we didn't consider the possibility of mating as our previous dogs were small dogs that were neutered and spayed before they were introduced to each other.
With many sources recommending we wait until 18-24 months before spaying and neutering the breeds we're interested in, is there any way to raise both sexes at the same time safely? Or is it best to wait to add another dog around 2 years later when the first one has been spayed or neutered?
