Question by ღemilyღ: If a dog is neutered, should the little red part of their penis (the “lipstick”) still be coming out?
My mom recently got her dog neutered.
Well his “lipstick” still pokes out whenever he gets excited. We assumed before that this happened because he was not neutered and were told that after he was neutered it wouldn’t happen anymore. But it still is. He was only neutered like a week ago though so I don’t know if it takes time?
Also, he is still humping EVERYTHING. Will his tendency to do this ever fade away?
Thanks!
Thank you everyone! Very helpful! I’ll be passing this info on to my mom. =)

Neutering is not the cure all people make it out to me. Mounting/humping is also out of dominance, not just the urge to mate. As for his junk slipping he’s relaxed. It may stop just like the humping and it may not. Welcome to the joys of owning a male dog.
ADD: he may still have residual testosterone in his system as well. You will just have to wait and see. For the humping, talk to a trainer or the old fix-it: a spray bottle filled with water.
