The Dog Training Review

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 act of dogs is kind of odd but the process ensures the perpetuation of this animal species. Dog owners have various reasons for mating the dog. Some would breed the pet for financial reasons. Dogs are well love pets and an owner may want to have cuddly and adorable puppies from the dog.

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. A healthy litter would be the common goal of pet owners and professional breeders for breeding the dog.

Dog breeders and long time dog owners would be accustomed to the mating process of dogs. A new owner though may find the act rather alarming especially if the mating is the first time for both or for one of the dogs. The distressed whining of the pet will naturally alarm the owner. A dog owner not conversant to the dog mating process would be alarmed at the pet’s obvious sign of distress thus the owner may try to separate the dogs in an effort to help. The mating dogs may appear to be hurt or distressed but no effort must be done to separate them. Male and female dogs are naturally stuck together while mating and any effort done to separate them will cause unnecessary injury.

Not like female dogs that will allow to be mated only during the estrus stage, male dogs are always ready to mate. 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. One dog will twist around after the penetration so that both dogs will face the 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. A small bone in the male member called baculum is what keeps the male member stiff. After penetration is achieved, the dogs will be stuck together in the position that is commonly called the canine mating tie. The tissues at the base of the male member get swollen with blood trapping the male member inside the vulva. The two dogs will remain tied for about twenty minutes until the dog has ejaculated and the male member returns to its normal size. This process is nature’s way of making sure that the bitch gets impregnated.
