Question about neutering

I’ve got a 7 month old wild guy over here. Vet recommended neutering at six months. My dog trainer and agility coach both suggested waiting until a year or more.

At this point, my main motivation to neuter his would be to hopefully calm him down a little bit. Even 10-15% would make my life SO much easier.

We train tricks, agility, walk. He naps (crate trained), chews, etc. so all the bases are coveted and still the majority of my time goes to managing and entertaining him. I love doing all these things with him but I am ready to have some of my time back and the ability to lay on the couch without getting ambushed.

Does anyone have experience in this area to share? Did neutering calm down your pup?
