castration if being done for routine reasons is best done later when the dogs growth plates have closed,i did have some links about this i will try and find them,also a nervous dog can benefit from its testosterone through their fear stages,the last one being when the dog is a teenager
again spaying young (pre season) you can run the risk of 'stump-pyo's' and they say it can contribute to u.i when older......
