| Kaya is getting spayed next week and I was just curious if anyone noticed a difference in their dog's personality afterwards.

| My first husky was a boy who was spayed at 7 and it made absolutely no difference in his calmness or aggression. I waited too long!
My second husky was a female who was spayed at six months. It did calm her down.
Bodhi, my current husky, was spayed at a year and a half. It did take the edge off some of his zooms, but I just can't tell if it wasn't just aging. |

| Usually no. After a month or so, her estrogen levels will decrease and she won't have the urge to be bred, so it will calm that aspect. But since I'm guessing she hasn't been through a heat cycle yet, you may not notice much of a difference. |

| I didn't effect my female at all. She was still as annoying after she got spayed as she was before she left |

| Nope. Not at all. I did it at 5 months for Rogue.
When I got Koda neutered, it calmed him down a lot. |

| I noticed no difference in either my female lab or my male husky. Not even a little bit, and I was hoping it would calm the lab down a bit lol. She has calmed down since then but not directly after being spayed. |

| We really didn't see a change either. Her personality was mellow when we got her (Possible side effect of having at least two litters within the past year) and we didn't notice a change. We were actually hoping she would get more playful. |
