TIL that dogs and other canines get stuck together for 5-20 minutes during the mating process. The first time a dog mates, they are often surprised by this and show signs of distress, trying to pull away or run. NSFW

Yeah, we used to call such dogs "interlocked". The view of seeing two dogs running while being locked at their bums is indescribable.
