Dog Enlarged ProstateAs dogs grow older, their prostate glands tend to enlarge. This maybe caused by infection, by a hormonal action, or by growths. Prostatic enlargement causes such a lump in the pelvis that it may give the dog a sensation of stool in the colon and cause him to strain a great deal in an attempt to relieve himself. The enlargement of the prostate is often related to perils. It is also a cause of constipation, because it blocks the passage of large, firm stools, permitting only very soft stools to pass over it. The infection produces pus along the tube that conducts the sperm. Each emission of semen shows myriad pus cells mixed with the sperm and such semen generally is incapable of effective fertilizations of eggs. This is one of the most common causes of male infertility. In stud dogs the use of antibiotics helps substantially. We have re-stored fertility to many studs in this way. In the case of dogs whose germ plasma is of no great value, two methods of reducing the prostate are useful: castration, and feeding of the synthetic female sex hormone, stiletto. Either method affects a cure but also causes sterility. Still it has not been incriminated in causing cancer in dogs as it has in humans.
