Doesn't sound too abnormal to me considering his age and that he's just recently been altered. I'd mention it to a vet, but it seems likely that it's just a phase. |
I say this because it isn't an erection
She is indeed seeing the pink penis sticking out of its furry sheath, but she would know an erection when she saw one. The dog's penis enlarges considerably and becomes a deep red color. In general one would also be able to see the knot at the end that allows the male to tie to the female. Viewable penis does not equal erection, it just equals viewable penis and there's no way to stop that. That's like asking a female dog to hide her nipples or something.
I just wanted to be clear with the OP (and whoever) that when you see a bit of dog lipstick, you're just seeing some anatomy. It has nothing to do with sexual excitement, mating, etc.
. He outgrew this for the most part. For him it was around 8months until he was a year probably that it was very frequent. Now it still happens sometimes, but not as often.
