    @alibobo Echoing what Sally (and Liz McCargo) has suggested re: not spaying/neutering, at least at this young age. There's a very insightful and thoroughly informative booklet by the "Puppy Culture" founder on the subject. It is chockful of the latest scientific/medical/genetic research and also takes into consideration the social "pressure" of neutering/spaying one's pet. (BF should read a few pages if he prefers facts to oft repeated false tales) https://my.puppyculture.co.uk/resources/flipbook/spay-neuter-booklet/ Whether to neuter/spay is an important decision and so is its timing should you decide to have the operation.

    You know, he's always seemed kinda 'laid-back' compared to my previous B-boy, but he was 5 when I got him. I just thought, knowing a bit of his background (he was previously in a home with a special needs child), that he was just that way. Maybe he has had this thyroid issue for a longer time than it took to manifest itself, physically. BTW, the backstory I heard for him involved a neighbor teen that was, supposedly, tortuous to the dog, ultimately leading to a bite. The dog and special needs child were best of friends. all of this could be 'horse hockey'….but even the vet has said he has a great personality.
