Veterinarian here: ask me anything!

Hey there!
Just curious to know if prostaglandins in human semen have the same effect on a dogs cervix as it does in a human? Inducing contractions and softening of the cervix, etc
And vice versa I guess - dog semen on a human cervix?!?!
So. I spent forever trying to find ya an answer in the literature and am not coming up with anything. PGE2, which is the type of prostaglandin you are referring to, does the same general things in humans and in dogs—based on what I could find, it’s essentially the same compound in both. That being said, there’s probably a whole host of other proteins present in cross species stuff that prevent it from binding to the correct receptor I would think.

I don’t have a conclusive answer for ya, maybe someone can chime in with more biochemistry knowledge than I have. ❤️
 
I thought my african grey was a boy until I found an egg in the bottom of the cage yesterday, her butts been sore and she keeps pooping it's like constant. I gave her a bath think she'll be alrighty?
As in “constantly making the motion” of pooping or actually doing so? She could be egg bound.
 
Mi primera esposa es veterinaria y siempre quise que tuviese sexo con perros: los que estaban en casa y cualquier otro, incluso de clientes de su negocio. Pero siempre fue reticente con eso, incluso me mandó a la mierd@ y la relación se enfrío por varias semanas.

My first wife is a veterinarian and I always wanted her to have sex with dogs: those at home and any others, even clients of her business. But she was always reticent about it, she even told me to go to hell and the relationship cooled down for several weeks.
I don’t think it’s ethical to have sex with business clients as a vet any more than it would be as a human physician. My definition of zoo is more of a sexual orientation, not a set of practices, and as such you can’t force it on anyone else—and shouldn’t be doing so. If you’re in a relationship with someone who isn’t zoo, repeatedly asking them about it isn’t the right way to go about things in a healthy way.

She aut to have hit you hard enough to jostle some brain cells into working, I am glad she had such good mind.

Sounds like some testing of the female canine reproductive system's receptor activity to human sourced prostaglandins with repeated exposure to human semen is in order! I volunteer my services for such a study!;)
 
Can someone tell if like a male dog had sex with a woman?
Most folks are not keyed in to even basic canine behavior. Additionally, your dog is going to know “walking outdoors among people” isn’t the appropriate place to have sex, and probably won’t even do so—too many things to sniff!

Regarding having visitors over, dogs are smart, and can absolutely be taught when asking for sex is okay and when it isn’t. If you have a certain location, or a certain towel/material/what have you that you use each time, then when it’s not there, you shouldn’t have issues. ❤️

Other folks can also chime in with what works for them—I’m sure plenty of people have experience with how they worked with their companions to figure out how to have a well adjusted happy dog!
 
Does having sex with a pregnant female dog affect the health of the female dog?
Depends on the week of gestation and the size of the dog. Most dogs probably won't be interested during actual pregnancy anyway. Early on I wouldn't worry -- later on in gestation it's probably best to take care of her and support the pregnancy -- she will feel all sorts of strange and new sensations and need plenty of care from you. ❤️
 
Hey @Deagle113, got another question for ya!

Is it true that dogs, with age, will have a lower libido and not thrust/ejaculate as much and will also spend less time with a swollen knot?
In general, yes. Ejaculate volume certainly decreases, as does sperm motility, with age. 3-5 years is the sweet spot. Because the knot swells in coordination with the different ejaculate fractions, the time spent is indeed less as the volume decreases. This is a general guideline though -- biology can do what it wants!
 
She will only eat a seed nut blend, I've tried fresh fruit and veggies and she doesn't like them. She only wants nuts and seeds.
Parrots get fat quickly, especially as they age -- and seeds and nuts are very high in fats among other things. They should compose around 20-30% of the total diet, with most of her diet composed of a good balanced pelleted or complete food for parrots. I would guess the full seed/nut diet is behind some of the diarrhea. See if you can transition her over to a complete parrot diet, supplemented with the seeds and other of her favorite foods on an as needed basis rather than composing the whole thing of seeds.

I read some times the dick of a horse needs some times to be cleaned? first why is that so because nature dont have planed that some one clean the horse dick... second it soudns a bit wired but it is possible to clean it by licking it clean :p

My late late woofy wife was the exact reverse of that, she was insatiable, and never knew she had a litter in her, I do so miss her, She was a Rotty, lab, shep mix. Given my sample group is one I can't say either if it is normal or not, I just know was an amazing time.

All pups where born strong and healthy

I'm sorry for your loss ? ?
 
Well 1 of her pups is still around at 14/15 years old now, She was a nympho right up to 12 years old, and at 13 she lost interest in sex all together, but she does still enjoy getting eaten out now and then.

Now she just enjoys sleeping on the pillows
That's nice ?

That’s smegma—a substance composed of dead skin cells, skin oil, and moisture. It normally is secreted to provide a protective covering and lubrication for the penis. (If you’ve ever seen a horse let down his penis and thought it was super dirty—that’s all smegma, not dirt.) some horses can be goopy, and some dry and flaky—both are normal.

It’s also normal for it to accumulate a bit in the urethral fossa at the tip of the penis, and contrary to popular advice, it rarely needs to be cleaned out. Excessive cleaning can actually do more harm than good—those sponges and antibacterial soap all the time can cause micro abrasions and sores, and disrupt the community of protective microbes. If in doubt, always have your vet take a peek.

Times when it may be good to clean it out are if your boy gets a laceration to his penis or has a skin issue like herpesvirus or squamous cell carcinoma down there that can interfere with the normal flow of things.
 
Do you think nipple style automatic water dispensers will increase the risk of bloat by increasing the air that dogs intake when drinking?
I don’t know! I wasn’t able to find any research on it. Based on the way a dog drinks though I would think the average air would be around the same. You can get “slow drinking” bowls that don’t allow dogs to gulp down water so fast, if that’s an issue.

We used to just lightly mist some of the nastier ones with a light mineral oil, all of it would fall out as he dropped to pee the next time round, was more to aid in their comfort then any thing ells.

Washing at most was once a month, usually just warm water and soft cloth, no soap.

I'm just curious to know if you ever heard females co-workers joking or talking about doing sex with some species?
