Please, please, please someone out there tell me that their GSD is as zealous as mine!!! Levi has got the biggest issue with erections!! I'm sorry but this is just the most bizarre thing I have ever seen on any dog. I've seen some dogs get excited on occasion but never like this. This dog gets excited if the wind blows and I'm not talking little pinkie excited I'm talking caught in the middle of breeding excited! Sometimes he takes a while to get it back to normal. He actually jumped up on the kids bed the other day and had to stay there for a while because he was stuck in a half moon position!! Is there anyone else out there that has this issue? Is there anything that can be done or does time adjust this issue? Remember he is a monochrid! Can a dog w/only one teste be so overzealous? He just turned 6 months, btw.

LOL...I am SO glad you posted this! I wanted to ask the same question and thought I'd be laughed off the forum.
My 9 month old has the same "problem"...the darn thing is always hanging out and, like Levi, for NO apparent reason. People comment on it all the time!
Well, you can always look on the bright side. At least you know Levi's one teste is working well
Do you feed raw? Because I notice my dog goes into a cushion humping frenzy after every raw feeding.
aahaaa you too ... I have a 14 month old male who was desexed about a month ago and every time we're out in public ... well he's poking out! He does have anxiety due to lack of socialisation so I was thinking it was just a stress related thing?!
He had an undescended teste, cost me a fortune to find it (it was tucked way up in his abdomen)
I dont care what my boss said ... Flurescent yellow shirts did not increase workplace enthusiasm ...
So did it subside a little after the neutering?? Levi gets excited when I come home, when I am going to play ball with him, when my BC is playing w/him, definitely in the morning before his early morning pee! When the wind blows, the sky is blue, days of the week that end in "y", before a feeding, after a feeding...getting my "point" No pun intended, lol!!
Yes I do feed raw but haven't noticed any correlation btwn feeding and the erections...
nope. Still does it. Like i said seems to be an anxiety thing, I got him when he was desexed and the previous owner/breeder had kept him in a pen, not encouraged to play or be out in the world at all so he's pretty much a social retard. We go out ... and he starts poking out hehe, but he's doing it less in the places he's getting used to now
I dont care what my boss said ... Flurescent yellow shirts did not increase workplace enthusiasm ...
It's pretty typical behavior for a male dog during the teenage months.
One additonal note, if it continues to be extreme or he's humping inappropriately (objects, legs, other dogs that are not in season) especially after neutering I have learned that hypersexual behavior is a symptom of vaccinosis.
If he's just 'exposing himself' and not behaving inappropriately then I would just ignore it.
This topic cracks me up too, my male APBT is 11, but EVERY time my dog sitter (young female - trains and shows Dogos)comes to stay with my two dogs, Buddy is at full alert all the time...He JUST LUVS her bwahahahahahahah
