It’s up to you entirely. Neutering a dog is a sensitive issue and PETA will probably advise you against it. What they forget is that dogs are in constant contact with humans and live among us in our neighborhoods. As someone who owns dogs, the pros of neutering outweigh its cons, almost every time. The major advantage of neutering is that neutered dogs are calmer. It's simply because of the drop in the testerone level of the dogs. The aggressive nature of dogs is decreased after neutering and if your dog is protective, it can help a lot. Breeds like pugs, newfoundlands and labradors can still be excused since they’re inherently calm. If you have a mastiff, pitbull or daschund, I would recommend neutering. Dogs that haven’t been neutered are not a threat to you, but to the people and dogs around you. Neutering also makes dogs less prone to certain diseases and contributes to the overall health of your dog. It also helps keep your dog calm during heat and helps you keep your sanity. The major con of neutering is that dogs are more likely to get fat after neutering so make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise. Good Luck!

There are various reasons for this and I have listed all of them only for you. Careless Training: The most important reason for their aggressiveness is their inefficient training. Small dogs are thought to be small and hence aren’t given proper training by their owners who underestimate their dog’s violent side. An untrained and uneducated child is more likely to be violent. Small dogs are mostly stay-at-home dogs and their opportunities to meet others is rare which makes them antisocial and untrustworthy towards others. Big dogs like mastiffs, on the other hand, are trained more sincerely by their owners and socialize every day, hence exhibit less violence. Every dog needs to socialize with humans and other dogs early in life to be calm around them. Breed Origin: The name ‘dachshund’ literally translates to ‘badger hunter’ and these dogs were specially bred to hunt badgers in holes giving them their signature long body and sharp claws on the front legs. Badgers are violent animals which makes these dogs an equal enemy to them. Dachshunds have also been used to hunt boars in the past. Leadership complex: Dachshunds tend to accept you as the dominant leader but you need to maintain your position, otherwise you will lose. If they feel you are weak, they will gladly take your place. Dachshunds happen to be one of the rare breeds that bite their human if angry.
