Cats and dogs as young as 8 weeks old can be spayed or neutered.

Most people try to have it done before the animal is 6 months old, although some people wait until the animal is a year old or more. This is NOT recommended by veterinarians; the health benefits of spaying/neutering are far greater if it's done as young as possible.

You should talk to your vet about when a good time is depending on the dog, but usually in new puppies, they should be spayed (females) or neutered (males) when they reach the age of 8 weeks.
