May I ask why your male is intact?
Intact males have a different smell than other dogs. Testosterone gives them their strong scent which may be considered a threat to neutered males. There are some dog parks that do not accept intact males due to the potential conflict. Interestingly, when dogs reach 10 months, there's a peak in this smell as testosterone levels in the adolescent male dog may be five to seven times greater than the levels of an adult! That 8 month old puppy may soon be at serious risk.
