How do you tell if a male dog is neutered?

Question

My dad has a female shih tzu/poodle mix dog and my uncle has a male shih tzu/maltese dog.

My uncle found his dog wandering the neighborhood 5 years ago and he decided to keep it so he doesn't know the dog's history.

Well my dad wants his dog to have one litter before she gets spayed.

Only problem is, we're not sure if the male is neutered! We don't want to go through the trouble of trying to mate them if it's not going to work.

How can we tell if he's been neutered??? Any identifying scars to search for?

Please, only serious answers! Thanks!

Ok so my uncle's dog IS neutered as he doesn't have any testicles. Thanks everyone for you answers!

And for GitEmGang, no I am not ignorant. I just didn't know if dogs were neutered the same way a man gets a vasectomy. You know, gets his seminal vesicles "snipped". Maybe you should get snipped.... you'd become one hell of a better person!

Answer 1

the schrotalscak of the male dogs are renoved to prevent the formation of sperms . if you will notice the street dogs in muncipal areas have their schrotalscak's removed so that they cannot breed . it is not like it is for people.

Answer 2

How are you ? This question should be easy to answer and yet , I think I understand why it isn't . With most every case ( probably 99.6% ) pet owners that do not want their pets fathering more puppys , will have the dog " fixed ". This is the proceedure of removing the dogs "boys"? well , he is castrated which removed the testicles completely. Being a male , I believe that to be an extreme measure. In todays medical marvels and for a hugh fee , you can have a vasectomy performed. I hear it is the same proceedure that a lot of men choose to avoid becoming accidental fathers themselves.If you are unfamiliar with this method of birth control , I'll try and explain although , I'm no doctor nor have I undergone the operation. As I understand , the artery that carries the males semen from the testicles during ejaculation is carterized.(sorry about the spelling and as usual , the yahoo spell checker isn't working ) In otherwords , severed and both ends melted shut.By preventing the release of the sperm from the penis , you effectively remove the possibility of pregnancy.To answer your question , if the dog has no testicles ....well , you'll know. The only other possibility that I am aware of would be the very expensive surgery. The chances of a scar would be difficult to find because of the size and the fact that the animal is covered with hair. I'd suggest you put the dogs together. They may not find each other appealing and you are worring for no reason. On the other hand , the female may not become pregnant even if they do copulate
but they may enjoy their time together. Good Luck !

Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://tinyurl.im/TaQwC

A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

Answer 4

Like most of the others said, if he's fixed he won't have any testicles. However, some people have prosthetic ones put in since they don't like the look of a nutered male. Usually this is only done in pure-breed dogs. If it was a stray I'd take him to a vet for a check-up, especially before trying to mate him with your female. While there just ask!

Answer 5

Usually, when a male dog is not neutered, he goes crazy 24/7 and tries to hump everything in site. But if your uncle found him wandering it is a possibility that he's not neutered. The best place to look for answers would be a vet.

Answer 6

you can flip the dog over and see if he has his testicles. if not, the dog is neutered. also there may be a small scar near his penis. please get the dog neutered, if not. there are no need for additional animals in this world when there are so many unwanted.

Everyone begins training a dog with a number of unknowns. First, no one can truly know how a dog will react to training and even if you know the breed, there can be differences with each individual breed. Another unknown is the type of dog training that you use. Some dogs do well with food based reinforcement and some do not and owners will need to learn as they go along. While most of the unknowns with dog training can be overcome quickly, many owners make some pretty common mistakes while they are training your dogs. To avoid those dog training mistakes, it is important to be aware of them and that is exactly what I will be doing in this article; alerting you to common dog training mistakes that every owner has or will make at one time.

Mistake #1: Not Setting Firm and Consistent Rules: One of the most common mistakes that owners will make actually has nothing to do with the physical act of dog training and is actually a daily occurrence that usually plays in the background. As every parent will tell you, children require rules and dogs are no different. There should be rules set in place the moment that a dog is brought home. This means that if you have a rule for no dogs on the furniture, then you need to stick with it, regardless of how cute a puppy is. Not establishing those rules right from the beginning can lead to long term behavior problems and your puppy will quickly learn that he can ignore the rules and eventually simply ignore you. It is important that you avoid this dog training mistake right from the start and make sure that everyone in your house will follow the same rules with your dog to ensure the best success.

Mistake #2: Repeat, Repeat, Repeat: Okay, this may be a little confusing since dog training consists of the repetition of an action but while repeating an action over again is fine, repeating a command is not. When it comes to dog training mistakes, I would say that this is the biggest mistake that owners will make and I have been found guilty of this little offense myself. It is only natural to repeat a command when a dog doesn't listen but it is something that you should train yourself not to do. When you repeat a command, you are teaching your dog that he doesn't have to listen to a command every time. This means that a command stops having any affect on the dog and you end up having to retrain with a new command, which can take time and can be very frustrating for both you and your dog.

Mistake #3: Rewarding Bad Behavior: Although there are several types of dog training available, most trainers and owners will use positive reinforcement training, which consists of treating your dog, usually with food, whenever he does something positive. While this is an excellent way to train your dog, many owners make the mistake of treating the wrong behavior and end up reinforcing bad behavior. Bad behavior in dog training is anything that you don`t want your dog to do. So, for instance, your dog is in the kitchen while you are cooking a meal. At first it may not seem like he is doing anything but spending time with you and that may have been the case in the beginning but when you drop your first bit of food, or you toss him a little snack, he will quickly learn to beg whenever you are in the kitchen. Fast forward a year and you have a full grown dog under foot whenever you go to the kitchen simply because you have reinforced that begging in the kitchen is okay. To avoid rewarding a dog for a bad behavior, don`t praise him, comfort him or treat him when he is doing something you don`t want repeated. So if he barks at the door, don`t praise him for being a good guard dog and if you drop some food on the floor, pick it up yourself and take it to his dog bowl if you want to give it to him. By controlling the environment, you can quickly stop yourself from rewarding his bad behavior.

Mistake #4: Saving it for a rainy day: The last common dog training mistake that I am going to mention is the desire to put off training. Many owners feel that dog training should be done after a certain age but it has been shown time and time again that the longer you wait, the harder it will be to train your dog. Dog training should begin as soon as you bring your puppy home. It starts with establishing rules and house training first and then it quickly moves to basic training such as sit, down, stay. Puppy socialization class usually begins around 11 weeks of age and from there you will quickly start dog training. Never leave training until your dog is 6 months of age or older since many negative behaviors are established by that time. In the end, if you are aware of the dog training mistakes that you can make, you will find that you are less likely to make them and your dog will quickly respond to dog training with only a small amount of fuss.

Look at his testicles. If he has them (big round balls) he's not neutered. If the sac is small & flat or missing, he's neutered.
