- Male and female cats: 4 months.
- Male and female small dogs – 5-6 months: i.e. prior to first heat.
- Male and female medium – sized dogs – 9 months: i.e. after first heat to ensure larger breeds more skeletally mature.
- Male and female large dogs – minimum of 1 year.
- Giant breed dogs – 18 months – this ensures that they are skeletally mature and may help reduce incidence of osteosarcoma in these breeds.
