Her behavior should not change much.
It will make males more likley to stay home and not roam looking for love. But for females the big benefits are lowering their risk of mamary cancer and you not having to put up with the heat cycles every six months.
As far as behavior i have a several spayed females and did not see big or really any difference in their behavior after the spay.

When we had our dog desexed, the vet told us that this helps calm hyper behavior, and also makes your pet less likely to want to jump a fence or roam the neighborhood (although they still are curious about their surroundings). Anyway, he is a very good vet and he said this procedure was best for our dog if we didn't plan to breed
him/her (we had two dogs, one male and one female, who had the procedure done). She may be listless and extra tired for the first week, but they bounce back pretty quickly. And, again, you will probably find that she is less hyperactive and has a more calm demeanor. Hope this helps!

When getting you rfemale dog desexed you should wait until after her first heat otherwise she will never mature properly but yes once they have been desexed they calm down heaps, but their personality and normal things they do will stay the same.

Some seem to mellow out a bit. It seems to affect the males more

She will be the same loving dog as before. Any aggressive tendencies may be alleviated.
