My Dog Want To Hump Me?

[SarahtheSniper]

I am not trying to be funny or anything, but Chilli had just started to want to hump my leg. He started it yesterday and he did it again today. I was playing with him and his toy, and all of a sudden he starts it. He did it to me again today with my arm. I hate it when he does it and I say NO and shake him off. Is it hormones? He is just around 18 weeks and we are getting him fixed later on this week. Is it good that I am saying NO and shaking him off, or should I do something different?

Chilli is a young unneutered male - and add the excitement of play to that, and he most likely became over-excited and aroused. When it happens, stop all play, and do try to remove yourself from him (that can be tricky, I know ). Once he's neutered, you should see a great reduction in that behavior - thank goodness, huh?

Yeah, i hate it when he does it. Thank God my mother wasn't in the room when it happened because it is kinda weird since it was his first time, and at first I had no idea what he was trying to do. I did tell her though and he is going to get fixed this Thursday.

Yeah my big dog Hank got "owned" at the Dog park one day by a chihuahua ... once you stop laughing you realise sometimes its funny but usually more annoying - good luck.
