unfixed males are at greater health risks for things like testicular cancer....
neutering him will help stop him from marking and will take away some male agression, making him more wonderful
its truely the best most loving thing an owner can do for a dog (or cat)
the barking is behavioral and wont stop simply by neutering him.. this reqires effort on your part.. even a squirt with a water bottle.. or obedience lessons will help by focusing him on you...

I had my min pin fixed when he was 10 months old. I heard all the stories of how they change and will calm down, but nope didnt quite work out that way. Now he is almost 2 years old and is still very enerjetic and still barks constantly. Its good to get them fixed though.

You should have him fixed. It is much better for his health. It will not change his personality except possible to settle him down just a little bit. You should definitely work on training him for the marking and barking business.

Yes, definitely have him fixed. It will not change his personality in the least. He still might need some training about the marking thing if he's gotten into the habit already, but you'll increase your chances of success significantly.
He will be also less likely to wander off in search of a female in heat he might smell a mile away. It also tends to make them less aggresive and lower their chances of certain types of cancer.

Yes, definately have him neutered.
He will not be able to contribite to the dog over population problem.
His being loving and his loyality will not change.
He will still mark his territory because he can.
He won't have the urge to run off looking for love in all the wrong places!
You will have an even better dog for neutering him!

Yes he should be neutered. He will be much happier and healthier being fixed. It will only change him for the better, don't listen to the myths that say it will make them fat, lazy, ECT. because those are total lies.

YOU SHOULD GET HIM FIXED! YOU SHOULD ALSO TRAIN HIM TO STOP BARKING ON COMMAND BECAUSE NEUTERING HIM WON'T STOP THAT, IT'S JUST HEALTHIER FOR HIM.
BTW, WHY ARE YOU YELLING?
People can see a question just the same if it's typed in lowercase.
