Dogs genitals?

Mimi_Arc_en_ciel

lol sorry - i dont know if we're being stupid or not!

Ok, obviously dog has his erm . . . knackers (as some one ^^ said!)

Now, I've never really looked at my dogs erm . . knackers . . but yesterday he was on his back having his belly rubbed and my OH shouted he had "lumps"

Now the lumps are at the bottom of his genitals (near his lipstick -omg this is making me chuckle)

We was trying to figure out whether they should / shouldnt be there (probably are and we're just being dumb!)

Wanted to do a quick google search but gave up as it kept bringing up "other" genitals lol

If they go up and down, they are probably the bulbus glandis, normal erectile tissue that helps to "tie-in" the male during reproduction. If they stay enlarged, see your vet

Hi - my boy has the same thing. He's 3 and neutered. It's the bulbous glands at the base of his you-know-what. They swell sometimes if he's excited or needs to go to toilet. Panicked the first time I saw it though and rang vet in a panic. Their intended use would be if your dog was mating, basically they swell and stop the dogs coming apart.

never feel silly, there are some very good posters on here that can offer advise, But obviously if someone thinks a vet needs to be involved you will get a barrage of posts..

I'm glad im not the only one lol He's my first dog - all others have been family dogs and my dad's always looked after them.

hmm out of curiosity would this explain him peeing more (he's normally Brill in the house but just recently he keeps weeing on my washing machine!) I put it down to the fireworks but then he isnt scared of them - he just barks (doesnt cower etc)

Don't forget a small amount of green discharge from the willie is normal too - that one supplies a lot of people too.
