Nope, as long as he doesn't have any problems, and he's not a sight-hound, he should be fine. However, castrating dogs over 10yrs of age is riskier, since they do not function as well as younger dogs.

5yrs is perfectly fine, and you will not have any problems in the future like some people do that neuter their puppies are 3 or 4months.
