 The love that dare not speak its name
Ugh. Okay, I hate to start a topic on this, but I am really starting to wonder.
Thor is not a sexual dog. I have never seen him hump anything, for which I am very grateful. Every month or so, I'd see he had a small erection after a nap, and very occasionally, he would "orally pleasure" himself, but that was it.
Over the past few weeks, his self abuse has become a nightly practice. And his "thing" is not just popping its head up anymore, it's a big ol' erection. It's out ALL THE TIME.
Is there any reason for this, or more importantly, any reason to think this might stop as suddenly as it started? I guess I'm afraid he's finally put it all together, and he's going to love on himself at every opportunity. I'd so rather he hump a toy than lick himself. Yargh.
He turned three a few months ago, if that makes any difference. I guess he's been around other dogs more now than previously - maybe that triggered some testosterone production?
How do I make this stop? It's yucky! |
