| I understand that even though that they can tie, it is not healthy that they can get infections from it

You obviously don't know what your talking about! Just because he is "neutered" doesn't mean he has no interest in females. They can't reproduce that's it. I have a male who was PROPERLY fixed! My female was in heat in May and he was VERY interested in her still! And was very interested in my mom's female while she was in heat as well. He was never used as a stud and was fixed about 7 months ago. He squatts to pee as well and has no retained testies anywhere. Please look info up before you jump to conclusions that the vet didn't do the job of fixing the male! Last edited by yorkie_mama22; 07-21-2010 at 06:16 AM. | |

| Tell me about it! My three year old was neutered at eight months old & he's still the randiest thing on four legs whenever one of my girls is in season. Not my two little Yorkie girls mind as they are both neutered.....Oh no, his ambitions are bigger than that as they are Skyes, weighing in at least five times bigger & 30lb heavier than his 5lb. Luckily he hasn't yet acquired the use of a step ladder. |

| Well I have learned something today--I've never heard of such ! I've never owned a fixed male but my sister has and her males never showed any interest in a female much less bred---and her dog was around my intact female a lot--but can't remember her being in season around him !! Something NEW !! I'd be interested in what the Vet says about this---has she taken him to the Vet yet ?? |

| I asked the vet nurse yesterday and she didn't sound surprised that he has been taking an interest. She checked his history and it was a full castration. So now maisie is in a diaper and in an exercise pen. Hard work at the minute tho. |

| Hope this thread doesn't get nasty. Obviously it's not very common for a neutered male to show interest but a quick google shows it does happen. To be honest the comments saying that toby hasn't been neutered properly have upset me and now I am worried. I have every faith in my vet and he did a brilliant job on Tobys hip for legg perthes but now I will be wondering about maisie for the next 2 months and I am pretty sure it is unnecessary.

| I would just like to warn you that a diaper will NOT stop them from mating and the Xpen is NOT enough of a barrier either. When you leave the house you really need to keep them totally separated so that someone does not get injured. There have been others on here that have tried to use diapers and belly bands as condoms (I understand he is neutered and pregnancy is not the risk) and they ended up with a litter of puppies.

Spermatogenosis (the creation of sperm) only occurs in one place- the testes. No other tissue in the body is capable of producing them. The bulbis glandis is erectile tissue that remains after neutering. Because that tissue remains, erections can and do occur. As I stated before, testosterone, though primarily produced in the testicles, is also produced by the adrenal glands, so the behaviors associated with the hormone can remain. The actual "locking" that occurs during mating is the result of the female clamping down around the male. It is possible that the tie will result in a psuedocyesis, or false pregnancy because the physical act of mating can set off a chain reaction of hormones in domesticated animals. In fact, even spayed females can undergo a false pregnancy if they tie. There was some good information on false pregnancy on the breeding thread. It's not dangerous, it doesn't affect future reproductive capabilities (if you are considering breeding your female down the line). You say you have faith in your vet and he did an great job with your dog's L-P surgery. Then have confidence that he could count to 2 and would know that he performed the castration successfully.

I wasn't trying to get nasty but I could understand because the comments the other poster was making was a bit offensive to me! It sounded like they were IMPLYING it was impossible and that your dogs surgery didn't get done properly. I am definitely not a shark that is rather rude! | |
