It is most likely leftover hormones from his neuter and will go away with time. Just make sure that he does not stay erect too long as this could cause a problem.
After I had both boys neutered Doodlebug who was 6 months at the time had a full erection. He was out in the yard with Bogey and would not come when I called him and was standing funny.
Boy was I shocked when I went to pick him up! He was fully erect and looked like he was in pain and frightened out of his mind!
I brought him in the house and put him into the kitchen sick with cold water~guess it wasn't cold enough and it didn't go down. So I called the vet concerned about his "condition" and he told me to bring him in. Before I left, I decided to put him into the shower~I held him in the stream of cold water and he started to swim in the air but it worked 'cause POOF it was gone
Bogey still brings out his lipstick a couple times a week and
does not have a love toy either.
It's been a few years since he was neutered and it only peeks out~nothing like what happened with Dbug and I have never needed to resort to the shower swimming either. It is all natural and part of being a dog. I would guess with a little more time he will not be able to get a full erection and only occasionally have just a small part peek out.
