My male puppy's penis is bleeding after humping. Does he need a vet?

Question

I have a 6 month old poodle pup he was getting randy and humping my other pup and his penis come out and was bent around like a u shape and then it ripped and went straight but it's bleeding like crazy!!! I sprayed it with purple spray(animal) and it went back in but now I am worried that itwill reattach or get infected do I have to take him to the vet or will it come good by spraying it and massaging to make sure it doesn't reattach? In 20 year of breeding I have never come across this. Pet's info: Dog | Poodle | Male | unneutered | 6 months and 12 days old | 5 lbs

It's a little difficult to tell for sure, but I wonder if Charlie had a persistent penile frenulum. It is a band of tissue that runs along the underside of the penis and attaches near the tip of the penis. That will cause the penis to curve. Normally we recommend surgically cutting the frenulum. I have not had one rupture on its own. They do not typically reattach after surgically cutting them. I would recommend having your veterinarian examine it to make sure that it was a persistent penile frenulum and see if anything else needs to be done about it. In the meantime, I would recommend trying to keep Charlie from licking at it and prevent any humping. If you are unable to stop the bleeding, then he may need to be examined tonight. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
