Things to know about dog mating

By Jerry Welsh


Dog mating is an impressive process however people are somehow discomfited to see dogs mating because of the tendency of these animals to copulate anywhere. The mating process is another wondrous work of nature that ensures the recreation of the dog species. There are many reasons why dogs are breed. Some would breed the pet for financial reasons. It is certainly understandable if a dog owner would want to care for dogs produced by the pet.

Some dog owners would want to "reproduce" the ideal temperament and the good looks of a dog. Dogs breeders may have different reasons for breeding the dog but everyone would have one goal in common. Professional breeder or pet owner, both would want to produce a healthy litter.

Long time dog owners would present a blas front when exposed to the mating of dogs. An owner watching the pet being mated for the first time may be alarmed at the pet's behavior. The distressed whining of the pet will naturally alarm the owner. The mating dogs would seem to be ineffectually pulling away from each other thus an uninformed owner's first reaction is to help. The mating dogs may appear to be hurt or distressed but no effort must be done to separate them. Being stuck together is a natural process of canine mating and trying to separate the dogs can result to injuries.

Unlike male dogs that are always eager to mate, female dogs would only accept males if they are in the estrus stage. Female dogs cannot be forced to mate because if they are ready, they will show flagging or the lifting of the tail to one side to invite a male dog. Once the bitch has given the invite, the dog will mount from the back in penetrate the vulva. While still tied at the rear ends, one dog will swing the legs over the other so that the mating dogs will face an opposite direction.

Canine copulation is different from human copulation in that human male member has to be erect to gain penetration while this is not necessary for dogs. The baculum is a small bone in the dog's male member that has the purpose of keeping the male member rigid. The mating tie will take place after the male member has penetrated the vulva. The tissues at the base of the male member get swollen with blood trapping the male member inside the vulva. The dogs will remain stuck together for about 20 or 30 minutes until all the sperms have entered the vulva. With the mating tie, the survival of canines is ensured.
