Bartok Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I have a 5mth old male desexed Rotti who thinks that humping everything is the most fun in the world and it is his mission in life. Sometimes he trys to thrust but other times he just hugs from behind. He only does it to an undesexed female Any advice would be fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 What do you do to deter him and show him that this behaviour is unwanted? You say he humps everything... but then "only to a desexed female..." Does he hump legs/cushions, etc too? Or just dogs...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we throw the ball to the other dog she chases it and when she comes back he is back on top. We are trying to be consistent but it isn't stopping him.

ILFC Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Discipline- really tell him off- very firm no and straight on the lead. Walk him on lead for 5mins and try again. Repeat every time. At home- water spray- stops them completely- or same- really tell him off and on the lead. It's a very annoying and bad habit to let them form. Consistency is the key- separate at home when unsupervised- so he can't repeat the behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gayle. Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 It's not sexual behaviour, it's dominance. Start displaying some very strong leadership to him, he needs to know who's in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
