Yes! <b>Female dogs can be mated by more than one dog during their fertile period meaning a mixture of sperm is present and waiting to fertilise her eggs when she ovulates. The technical term for this is superfecundation.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_male_dogs_get_locked_together\"><\/span>Can male dogs get locked together?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s something that nearly all canines do, including wolves and foxes. During intercourse, a part of the male dog&#8217;s penis called the bulbis glandis swells and prevents him from pulling out.

Given time, your dogs will separate themselves and be no worse for wear. If the tie lasts for longer than 20 minutes, try to relax the female dog by petting her. Otherwise, don&#8217;t try to get involved.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_dogs_get_stuck_together_when_they_mate\"><\/span>Do dogs get stuck together when they mate?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How Long Do Dogs Stay Stuck Together After Breeding? <b>Dogs remain stuck together at the end-stage of mating for five to 45 minutes, says Greer. The male dog dismounts and ends up rear-to-rear with the female. Dogs new to mating may experience a bit of anxiety at being locked together, but it&#8217;s a natural process.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_male_dogs_have_Urges_mate\"><\/span>Do male dogs have Urges mate?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While <b>they do not need to mate, it is a basic instinct of their nature to pursue sexual gratification. There is not an actual requirement for male dogs to be neutered, but it is something that is encouraged in Western societies to prevent lots of unwanted puppies.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_breed_a_dog_with_2_males\"><\/span>Can you breed a dog with 2 males?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Multiple Fathers<\/b> <b>Sperm can survive in the reproductive tract for a week after mating. This means if your dog mated with one dog shortly before ovulation, she could still become impregnated seven days later. Breeders usually recommend two or three matings over a few days to ensure pregnancy.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_dog_be_pregnant_with_2_different_fathers\"><\/span>Can a dog be pregnant with 2 different fathers?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Since dogs are polygamous, females will mate with any available male dog while in heat. As a result, <b>puppies from the same litter may actually have different fathers. As you might expect, the genetic variation among puppies with different fathers is greater than that of those who share the same father.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_male_dog_get_stuck_with_a_male_dog\"><\/span>Can a male dog get stuck with a male dog?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Dogs get stuck together as the final step in their mating process.
