How do you know when a male dog is in heat?

I have a 6 month chihuahua and I was just going to call the vet to make an appt to have him fixed, but.... today his little wienne came out. Does this mean he is in heat??? If so how safe is it for them to be fixed while they are in heat. He is only 2 pounds 7 ounces. Any advice would be appriciated. Thanks

Yeah, get him fixed....males DO NOT COME IN HEAT!!Ever see a guy get a period????

You don't need to have any worry about that, as male dogs do that at any time..They don't have any 'heat' season... he is just becoming sexually mature, and it is the perfect time to have him neutered..

male dogs dont come into heat so you can go get him fixed and not worry bout a thing

Males do not come into heat..only females.

a male dog does not come in heat, that only happens to a lady dog, a male is always ready for it, (no change there then like the human ) his thingy can pop out anytime, sometimes when he is straining to poo for example.

no it means it means... nothing.

Males do not come in Heat! It is their instinct to act like you male is. I raise Yorkies and recommend people to get the puppy spayed or neutered by 6 months of age. It is so much better for the animal if your not going to use it for breeding. Getting your pet altered helps it to live longer, have less kidney problems, hepls prevent mammory tumors in females and keep them a puppy at heart.

Male dogs are like male humans. They are always in heat. The he-manly ones anyways.

male dogs don't go into heat, much like their human counterparts they just stay horny.

Male dogs don't go into heat, but when he start humping your leg, it is time to get him fix.

His mangina begins to bleed in a very manly way.

Male dogs don't go into heat. You can have him neutered now that he's six months. Its easier for male dogs.

It is called a horny pup males do not go into heat.

male dogs do not go in heat, only females. males can smell a female for miles away but it drives them crazy.getting your male dog neutered will help alot. if your not sureexactly what neutering is then your vet can explain the procedurefor you. it's not as big of procedure as spaying females.

Forgive me for sounding as though I am surprised at ur question, but.........Male dog's do not come in heat, that is only the female (B.i.t.c.h) You will always find the male dog doing this especially if he is over excited for any reason, its perfectly normal and no need to take him to see your Vet. He is about the right age to start thinking about having your dog neutered, if he is showing his Penis a lot then he is becoming sexually mature, now is the time to have him done.

Eww!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Male dogs don't come into heat. Female dogs do. . . it's similar to a woman's period. Male animals (cats too) have their little "lipstick" come out when they're horny or after licking themselves.

MALES DON'T GET IN HEAT!!! But they ARE attracted to females in heat!PS: You SHOULD get him fixed, though. If you ever get a GIRL dog, it is NOT safe to get her spayed when she's in heat!!!

Male dogs do not go in to heat. As long as he is healthy you can have him fixed now. If there is a female dog in heat around he will act like he is in heat. Go ahead and get him fixed, it is a good thing and can keep them from getting certain cancers and they make better pets. Good luck with your furkid, sounds like he is a real cutie.
