Resumo: Overpopulation of dogs and cats is a worldwide social problem. Pediatric castration (from six weeks of age) has been promoted as part of the solution to ethically and effectively contain this serious problem, In addition pediatric castration is also important in preventing innumerable unwanted behaviors, medical conditions and diseases. While in the US, Canada and Europe this procedure is standard in the routine of veterinarians in Brazil is still under scrutiny, the subject is treated as novelty, always surrounded by much controversy and professionals seem intimidated by the technique. The objective of this literature review is to critically examine the scientific literature on early castration, to review the physiology of the puppy, the surgical techniques and anesthetic necessary for the procedure and to present the risks and benefits, helping the veterinarian to obtain scientific knowledge and rationale for critical analysis of the theme, the propagation of this practice and the awareness of tutors and public authorities.
