Why does my fixed male dog still try to breed with a female in heat?

Question

My male dog is fixed but he still keeps trying to breed with my malshi when she is in heat, why is that? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 6 years and 3 months old

Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

Neutered males can display erections and ejaculate just like intact males. They may mount in a display of dominance or can still mount to breed in the presence of an intact and receptive female. Correct the behavior immediately (even though no litters will come of it) and distract or separate him completely from the female until she is no longer in heat. Consider having your female spayed in the near future.
