Question
At what age should I have my male Siberian Husky fixed and does it mess with his head?

Answer
Talk to your vet about specifics as they often have better guidelines that they like to work with, but generally, 6 months or so is a good age.  As far as "messing with his head", it will generally calm the dog down, reduce territoriality, and "wanderlust", but generally will not change the dog significantly.  Some aggression is also leveled off as well.
