I am confused. Does it matter that he is older, will he still stop peeing in the house??

If the reason you are neutering is to control marking, then it is too late. You are wasting your money. To control marking and foot humping you have to neuter before they reach sexual maturity.
At this age neutering is simply a permanent form of birth control. People with an antibreeding agenda will lie and tell you otherwise, but it is true. If you want a male dog that you don't plan to breed then neuter before the 6mo mark if you want to stop marking and leg humping.

He'll stop peeing in the house when you housebreak him- google 'crate training' it's what I recommend. My dog was a year oldish when he got neutered- he never squatted to pee before and now he does 85% of the time. This allows me to determine when he is 'peeing' and when he is 'marking'. He has never tried to mark in my house- but recently tried to mark in another person's house (I think another dog had marked there).

Hi I had 2 pugs , a female and a male,,and Ripley, the male still continued to mark the house .....it's frustrating....but i just started gating them in the kitchen where it's easier to clean up and of course he had to pee on the dog bed in there...but it's better than my couch and tables and corners of walls....so no, it does not stop...sorry...PUGS ROCK !!!!!

There are no guarantees that he will stop marking in the house when he is neutered. But it is still best to get him neutered.

Your dog is not that old at all...and age doesn't usually make a huge difference. Your dog is likely to stop marking territory in the house (if that's what he's doing.) However, if the dog is not potty trained, the surgery won't change that. After the surgery, your dog may still have accidents in the house while he is recovering. Mine had his surgery a week ago and it took him quite a few days to stop leaking on the carpet...

While neutering can help the biology - you will need to make a serious and consistent
training effort to break the psychology of the habit.

It is best to nueter him and it MAY stop marking and agression tendences, and it may not. We fixed our current dog as early as possible and he still marks everywhere.
As for peeing in the house- is he marking his territory or is it some other issue. If it is something else, nuetering him (while a good idea) will do nothing to stop it.

submit neuter care is lots greater handy than submit spay care. you will purely would desire to maintain him from working and leaping so he would not injury the incision or reason swelling. ensure you ask the vet approximately your concerns once you %. him up. If he's definitely hyper they prescribe a gentle sedative.

There is no guarantee, since he as already "learned" the behavior. After his operation, he might be a little easier to house train, but don't bet on it.

Neutering him will lower the chances of him continuing to ''mark'' the home, but there is no guarantee that it will completely go away.
