I'm planning on having a baby and my significant other wants to get a GSD and do Schutzhund. He doesn't want to get the dog fixed and this makes me nervous. Advice?

Hi,

I have read your website with interest and do have a question that is not quite answered on the site. I am not a huge dog person, and have never owned one, although I am ok with well trained dogs I know and like. Planning on having a baby, and my significant other wants to get a purebred German Shepherd and do schutzhund. I have no issue with either of these, but he wants to not get the dog fixed. He is quite good with animals. I, however, do not have a lot of dog experience and this makes me very nervous. He is absolutely insistent on not getting the dog fixed. Obviously, safety is my biggest concern, and this is causing me no end of sleepless nights.

Advice?

Thank you so much,
Jenifer
