How do dogs mate after mating? Analysis of dog breeding behavior and scientific management
Recently, pet breeding behavior has become one of the hot topics on the Internet, especially the repetitive behavior of dogs after mating, which has attracted widespread attention. This article combines hot discussions and scientific data on the entire Internet in the past 10 days to conduct a structured analysis of this phenomenon and provide feeding suggestions.
1. Statistics of hot spots across the entire network (last 10 days)
| Topic keywords | Search volume (10,000 times) | Main discussion platform |
|---|---|---|
| dog mating behavior | 28.5 | Zhihu/Tieba |
| animal reproductive cycle | 15.2 | Douyin/Kuaishou |
| Pet fertility management | 9.8 | Weibo/Bilibili |
| Canine Physiology Knowledge | 7.3 | Professional Veterinary Forum |
2. Analysis of repetitive behaviors in dogs after mating
1.physiological reasons: There is a "locking phenomenon" in dogs. After mating, the male dog's penis will swell and get stuck in the female dog's vagina for about 15-30 minutes. This is a normal physiological reaction. This triggers the secondary mating instinct in some dogs.
2.Reproductive instinct data:
| Dog breed | Average number of matings/estrus | Interval time |
|---|---|---|
| Large Dogs (Golden Retriever/German Shepherd) | 3-5 times | 12-48 hours |
| Medium-sized dogs (Corgi/Border Collie) | 2-4 times | 24-72 hours |
| Small dogs (Teddy/Pomeranian) | 4-6 times | 6-24 hours |
3.behavioral explanation: Wild animals will mate multiple times to ensure reproductive success, and domestic dogs retain this genetic trait. Research shows that multiple matings spaced more than 12 hours apart can increase the pregnancy rate by 18%-25%.
3. Precautions for breeders
1.Key points of health monitoring:
• No more than 2 matings per day
• Supplement with high protein foods (beef/eggs)
• Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours after mating
2.Abnormal situation identification:
| Symptoms | Possible reasons | Handling suggestions |
|---|---|---|
| Continuous bleeding | vaginal injury | seek medical attention immediately |
| Locked for more than 48 hours | genital incarceration | professional separation |
| Loss of appetite | Physical exhaustion | Nutritional supplements |
4. Expert advice
The Dog Industry Branch of China Animal Husbandry Association recommends:
1. Record the number and time of matings every day during the breeding period
2. Adult dogs should breed no more than 2 litters per year.
3. Provide a separate resting space after mating
5. Popular opinions on the Internet
1. A Douyin pet blogger's "Cute Dog Classroom" video pointed out: "70% of unintended pregnancies are caused by owners not understanding the dog's estrous cycle." The video received 320,000 likes.
2. A Zhihu hot discussion shows that 85% of the respondents support the sterilization of non-breeding dogs.
Conclusion: The repeated mating behavior of dogs is a comprehensive expression of natural instinct and physiological characteristics. Scientific understanding and reasonable management can not only ensure the health of pets, but also avoid unnecessary reproduction problems. It is recommended that breeders consult professional veterinarians regularly and establish a complete pet health file.
