At exactly around 9:00pm, I remembered because I was watching "
Simon Schama's Power of Art: Bernini" on PBS, the program finished at 9pm. I noticed Cartman was again humping the cow pillow, this was the first time after he got neutered. I suppose he was excited today, we met 3 to 4 dogs during today's walk. He was all excited with a tiny 2 and half year old "Collar"(?). Five minutes later, he looked all funny, he crouched his back, and looked he could not walk or lie down. And then I noticed his male thing was all bloody and big. This scared me, he didn't want to be touched, he didn't want to lie down, he stood there, didn't know how to handle himself, he also whined a bit. At the moment I thought he was dying, or gonna bleed to death. He was neutered a few weeks ago. "What kind of job the vet has been doing? Is his wound bleeding? Is it because he didn't get enough rest after being neutered? Did I feed him anything funny today?" Flood of questions and several frantical phone calls later, I dialed animal emergency center, "911 Dell Ave, Campbell CA, 95008, 408-371-6252", where I was advised to send him in and the visit would be 150 bucks, which I was more than happy to pay. I noticed his thing got smaller during the phone, but, still there were bloody stuff there. While waiting for nan to come home since I could not bear to bring him to hospital myself, he was totally in cannot-sit position, I didn't know how to put him into his kennel and etc, I noticed he seemed to be becoming better, then I took second look at his place, with courage, he was totally OK. No bloody stuff at all.
Both google and the other male in the house informed me: well, actually it was his first erection, being a male dog.
Male Dog problem: The two round objects you are seeing are called the bulb of the penis. It is really just one large area of spongy blood filled tissue but it has two lobes. These fill with blood rather dramatically when a dog gets an erection and do often have appearance of subcutaneous testicles alongside the penis. Many dogs continue to be able to produce an erection shortly after neutering and as many as 20% of dogs may be able to produce an erection long-term after neutering.
