WHY DO DOGS GET STUCK DURING MATING?
Dogs Get Stuck During Mating Because Of A Process Called A Copulatory Tie. It Is Also One Of The Main Stages In The Process Of Intercourse.
The Male Dog Has An Organ Called The Bulbus Glandis And Contraction Of Vaginal Muscles Of Female Which Are Responsible For Keeping Him Tied Up With Each Other. The Dog Breeding Tie Basically Keeps The Semen Secured Inside The Female Dog.
The Tie Is Extremely Common But As Opposed To Common Misconceptions, Not A Strict Requirement For Pregnancy As Such.
The Approximate Time For Which The Dogs Can Be Stuck From Butt To Butt Varies Between 5 Minutes To 15 Minutes. However, Depending On Several Factors, The Copulatory Tie Can Take As Long As Half An Hour.
Dogs Should Never Ever Be Interrupted When They Are In The Mating Position.
Ideally And In Most Cases, The Copulatory Tie Won’t Last For More Than 20 Minutes. It Mainly Depends On How Long The Male Dog Will Take To Ejaculate His Sperm Into The Female Dog. They Will Stay Stuck Till The Bulbus Glandis Is Back To Its Original Size.
Stages Of A Tie
Getting Stuck Often Happens Right At Or After Ejaculation. The Expansion Of The Bulbus Glandis Compels The Dogs To Get Stuck To Each Other From The Rear Ends. The Situation Lasts For 10-15 Minutes In The Majority Of The Cases. It Is Also When The Sperms Are Deposited In The Female Dog. There Should Be No Interruption Whatsoever During A Tie And Throughout The Entire Intercourse.
1. Mounting
The First Stage Is Referred To As Mounting. This Is Triggered By The Female Dog’s Flirting And Especially, Flagging, Which Involves Showcasing Her Rear End To Imply That She Is Ready. The Stud Or The Male Dog, After Getting This Signal, Prepares To Mount The Female One.
2. Penetrating
The Next Stage Is Locating, Identifying, And Penetrating The Vulva Of The Female Dog. This Might Require Some Assistance And Help From The Breeder Especially If The Male Dog Is About To Mate For The First Time.
3. Ejaculating
Once The Vulva Is Located, It Is Ejaculation That Takes Place. The Male Dog Releases The Prostatic Fluid Along With His Own Sperm Just As He Starts Humping The Female Dog.
Copulatory Tie Pain
A Copulatory Tie Can Be A Bit Painful Depending On Several Factors. For Instance, If The Dog Is Breeding For The First Time, There Are High Chances Of The Process Being Painful For Him. This Is Also Because The Dog’s Lack Of Breeding Experience Leaves Them Confused About Which Position Would Suit Each Other The Best. Stress-Related Discomfort Can Also Result In Some Kind Of Pain For Both.
Slip Mating
Slip Mating Is When The Coitus Does Not Happen Because Of The Male Dog Withdrawing His Penis Even Before The Bulbus Glandis Enlarges. This Is Caused When The Female Counterpart Is Not Completely Ready For Intercourse And Starts Moving Just As The Penetration Takes Place.
It Is Good To Remember In This Respect That Slip Mating Can Also Impregnate A Female Dog If The Male One Has Been Successful In Releasing The Semen Into The Female Prior To The Withdrawal. In Fact, The First Ejaculation Has The Maximum Amount Of Semen And Sperm In It.
Lastly, If The Male Dog’s Penis Continues To Be Enlarged After He Has Pulled Out From The Female; Make Sure Catching The Seminal Fluid In A Container And Keeping The Surroundings Clean.
To Avoid Wrong Coitus (Or Multiple Breedings) From Taking Place And Ensure That The Mating Goes Smooth And Successful, Comfort The Dogs As Much As Possible. Allowing Both Dogs To Meet Before Breeding Is An Essential Way Of Preventing Chances Of Discomfort During The Breeding, As We Explained In Another Blog Post.
