If one does not mind their dog doing this, then fine, but for those who are concerned about it, it can be stopped.
I still wonder if opinons would be different if we had Great Danes and not Yorkies.
I have also read, on this forum, that males can injur themselves and develop infections if their penis gets rubbed on a stuffed toy, blanket etc. And of course if their erection last for more than 4 hours.  |
I think maybe if you had started with saying it was an "unwanted" behavior instead of a "bad" behavior that would have made a little difference. bc some people don't see it as bad, but perhaps unwanted by some. I personally think it's funny, BUT if I had a great dane, you are right, I probably wouldn't allow it, along with barking as well, bc, well, a great dane is bigger than a yorkie. Our little ones get away with a lot more than the big guys purely bc of their size.
