It is possible but I am not that sure there is strong relationship between castration and infection of prepuce area. The infection of prepuce is due to enviroment .If your dog always stay in a poor enviroment area and he also gets erect all the time, then the chance of infection will increase. The only explanation for less infection on castrated dog is he won't get erect(when male dog becomes excited, the penis will be out of preuce and contact the outside enviroment) as much as non-castrated dog, so the chance of infection can be reduced. By the way, sometimes the infection can come from a female dog(you know what I mean, right?)
