However sometimes there can be variances in mating tendencies, and this can have a direct impact on how your dog behaves. She might try to pull away from the male during the tie. This can result in fairly severe injuries to the male dog, sometimes even necessitating surgery.

Read More »When a female dog goes into heat, it's called "estrus." When this occurs, you'll notice the female will begin sniffing male dogs. You might also see her "presenting." What this means is that the female canine will turn around and present her rear quarters, while pointing her tail to one side. This is specifically designed to get the male's attention. Other behaviors meant for this are things like the female laying her head on the back of a male dog while pawing at him. She may even try mounting the male dog as a way to bring attention to her condition. The next step with having a female dog in heat is what happens when she encounters what professionals refer to as a "sexually intact" male canine. At first meeting, you'll likely notice the male dog slowly approaching. He may sniff and lick her as a way to gauge her reactions and receptiveness. If turned down, the male will often back off and try again another time. Hardly ever will you see a male dog fight with a female regarding the ability to mate. When the female dog is prepared, she will do as stated above, point her tail and present her hindquarters to the male dog. After this happens, a very interesting third step occurs after the male dog has begun his attempts at mounting the female. What happens is commonly referred to as "the tie." When a male dogs penis enters a female dog's vagina, the front facing bulb on the male's penis enlarges rather dramatically. Once the male is fully engorged, the dogs are essentially "tied" together until copulation is complete. At this point, you will see the male dog turn around until the dogs are standing back to back. This final phase of dog mating can last up to 60 minutes, during which time the dog ejaculates many times.
