John: If you 7-year old dog is not being used as a Stud (and really shouldn't be over the age of 6), it is best to have him neutered to keep him from getting testicular cancer. As long as he is an in-tact male, he will still have hormonal mating reactions until the day he dies (even dogs who have been neutered are know to still "mount" other dogs, but of course, cannot impregnate). I would recommend that this procedure be done before you relocate. Hope all goes well with your move.

we have a 7 year old male whom we did not have as a pup and he has not been sterilised . Should he be done now at this age, are there side effects? Had read somewhere not good for dogs with joint problems?? He does not have at the moment.
would love to hear your thoughts please
I ask because he will relocate to the UK soon, at the moment he has not contact with other dogs but in the UK that could change
