Yes, it will most likely stop a good portion of the fighting. It does take up to two weeks after the surgery however for all the testosterone to dilute out of their system, but you should notice a change fairly quickly.

Not really, although it may help to some degree.... depending on what they are fighting over. If they are fighting over a female then neutering will help, if they are fighting because they both have a "dominant" personality then neutering will do nothing. Whatever the reason for fighting you need to find it out, only then will you be able to correct the problem.

It is highly doubtful. Neutering a dog may mellow it out a little but if the dogs are already fighting neutering them will not stop it. You'll have to dig deeper into the problem and then come up with a solution.

No. My sister has 2 neutered male dogs, one a weiner dog & one's a poodle. They both fight regularly & try to dominate the other one. Both are humpmasters & like to get busy with each other, then snap & snarl. These 2 dogs have to be seperated a lot. Now she wishes they'd gotten a female poodle, not a male, to stop the fighting.

Neutering does mellow most dogs, but it sounds more like the dogs are trying to decide who is going to be the alpha male. Once they decide that the fighting will likely subside.

in the event that they arent already, get them the two fastened, or return the different boxer. i'm guessing your older dogs has a greater dominant character, wherein case you will desire to in all danger merely shop him, and not get yet another dogs. After 10 years, that's plenty to rigidity a sparkling dogs on him, enormously if its a youthful dogs. He in all danger feels threatened, as he could in a %., that this new dogs is going to thieve his territory, so the only way he can do away with him and shop his place is to combat him off or kill him.

Neuturing will help with agression in most cases, but it prolly won't stop them from fighting. You should neuter them anyways simply because of the health benifits.

If they fight now probably not but getting them neutered is a great idea and I would definitely try it!!

No. It will help curb their aggression somewhat, but the dogs need to be trained, particularly if this has been allowed to go on for any length of time.
