Re: Penis sucking puppy

is that normal ? i mean is that safe for the male puppy ?

Re: Penis sucking puppy

I had my first litter of Penis suckers. They are fat, happy and well fed.
My solution, I took an ankle sock and cut holes for front legs, and cut the whole back of sick off.
Looks like a sweater, covers the penis. I made a 12 pack so I can switch them out if they get wet from pee.
I call them PPP puppy penis protectors or Suck Off. Lol! Works great. My pups no longer suck on the Penis's.
I have a picture if need be. You can email me at becky@bestshepherds.com.

Re: Penis sucking puppy

Thats so smart! I have two orphaned pits and they have a sucking problem. They are too gaining weight and are incredibly healthy, but at 6 weeks, the sucking is getting rather annoying and incessant. thanks for this trick! i am going to try it right now!

Re: Penis sucking puppy

Wow! Thank you so much, Becky! I have two orphaned puppies now 10 days old. One is. a huge female who won't leave her little brother alone. All that sucking gets really annoying, to the pup and me, too. I was happy to donate some socks to the cause and finally, the little man can sleep undisturbed and I'm not grossed out. Thank you!

Re: Penis sucking puppy

My little fur babies are 5 1/2 weeks. They also do this sucking on each other.....even after just being fed. Usually they're playing turns into this. And they do get rough.
They are being weaned. So ruling out being hungry or still nursing .....why?

Re: Penis sucking puppy

Is it safe you ask? The posts here suggest it is, but I had a foster kitten die from an infected penis after this behavior from his litter mates. I'd discourage it. It's just a pacifier, and has nothing to do with appetite or nourishment. I now have two runts in a litter of seven puppies that refuse to sleep without something in their mouths. I'm trying several things to discourage it because it CAN be dangerous.
