How does neutering affect a dog's aggression?

I've heard different things from different people. Some claim that neutering does not affect a dog's temperament, but others say it does because it lowers the dog's testosterone. Does anyone have any personal experiences with this?

    • overall, it does effect their aggression. usually female dogs that arent spayed act a little more cranky/snappy, especially when theyre near their heat time. and for male dogs once theyre neutered there will be no more wanting to run to the girls, lol.

    • It does help with their overall attitude & posturing. Many times intact males will instinctively square off with each other-it's primal in nature. Having them neutered before the aggression starts will help, and will also help protect them from testicular cancers that some dogs get.
