Sex

As with other dogs, Dogo Argentinos undergo puberty to become sexually mature and able to reproduce. The exact age at which this happens may vary from breed to breed but usually happens sometime between six months and a year of age. A dog may have the physical ability to procreate, but ethical breeding should wait until the dog reaches emotional and mental maturity.

When breeding dogs, it is important to think about their health, temperament, and family history. Prior to contemplating breeding, many respectable breeders wait for the dog to reach a minimum age of two years. The dog may attain full mental and physical development during this time, which lowers the chance of health problems in the puppies.

Spaying or neutering a dog is a great idea for anybody who doesn't want to breed it. While doing so eliminates the possibility of mating impulse behaviours and reduces the likelihood of some reproductive-related health disorders, it also delivers health advantages and may help good behaviour by preventing undesired litters.

It is advised that you seek the advice of a veterinarian if you are uncertain about your Dogo Argentino's reproductive health.
