A dog lover, whose female dog came "in heat," was concerned about
keeping it and her male separated. But she had a large house and she
believed that she could keep the two dogs apart.
However, as she was drifting off to sleep, she heard awful howling and
moaning sounds. She rushed downstairs and found the dogs locked
together and unable to disengage, as frequently happens when dogs
mate.
Unable to separate them, and perplexed as to what to do next, although
it was very late at night, she called her vet, who answered in a very
grumpy voice.
After she explained the problem to him, the vet said, "Hang up the
phone and place it down alongside the dogs.
I will then call you back and the noise of the ringing will make the
male lose his erection and he will be able to withdraw."
