Sometimes he screams when you pick him up, other times he pees on himself while in the submission position. If company comes over he yips, screams and barks (the barking is like rapid fire, if that makes sense). Crating him until company can get through the door only increases his volume. Lately his new favorite thing to do is bark at nothing in the center of the backyard and upon correction, he barks just one more time.

I'm going to start him on his medicine tonight, I'll post an update in the morning. Wish me luck!
Do you think he's in pain, btw? Sometimes dogs will act this way if they are in physical pain too. With the urine and penile sensitivity, have you ever suspected a UTI or anything? He's not peeing/drinking a lot is he?

Oh! And GOOD LUCK!
