My dog use to spend time playing with me but two days ago he started acting very very strange and instead of playing with me he would run out and go meet my friend's dog which is a girl? Do you have to spay and neuter him to make him stop acting so strange?

Your Male dog is no different from any male really. He sees a gal hanging around his yard he is going to check her out. That's not being strange that is being male. If you don't intend on breeding him get him neutered and remove the chance of testicular cancer later on in his life which is fairly common in intact dogs.

There is no preferred time that dogs like to mate. It doesn't matter if it is fall spring summer or winter.( It is a male thing) Male dogs when they get the scent of a female in heat are very uncontrollable they cannot think of anything else, and they do start having strange behavior. Get the dog neutered and your dog should be back to normal.

Dogs mate whenever the female is in heat. That is probably what is happening in your situation. Having him neutered (spay is for female dogs) will cut down on his sex drive. But perhaps he just likes playing with dogs that is normal and healthy for him to do.

A male dog will smell a female in heat and that is where his attention will go. Neutering him will stop him from seeking out intact females. It also will prevent unwanted pups, reduce the chances of testicular cancer, and prostate problems as the dog ages.

Dogs can mate at anytime of the year. Dogs also will mount other dogs sometimes to show dominace. This behavior sometimes does not change with being neutered. You can try to discourge your dog from doing this by keeping him on a leash while outside.

Yes,spraying nueter on him would be a good idea.Then he will be able to eat properly and would stop going on the Six Flags ride Goliath.If you keep beating him with a cucumber then he will runaway to the neverlands of Kindom Hearts2 which is in store now for only $50.00.Now if you want to keep hitiing him,thats fine.But dont mate with him.Othwerwise youll be in big trouble with Mr.Waaajid.Pplease listen to me Obi Wan Kinobi.The future is in our hands and together we can fix this problem of Global Warming.This is what Kuyler says and he is true to you and me.That is why I love Barney.

He should be neutered. It is far better for his health. He will not get prostrate cancer and he will be a better pet. He will not have the urge to go off and look for a female in heat all the time and spend more time being your pet.

Neutering will help. Male can sense a female in heat and it will cause them to run. Their brains go to other areas. Go figure.

The female was probably in heat.
