I have to disagree with that statement.  Yes it is a sexual act between males and females during mating,. But it is also a dominance display and can occur anytime whether they are neutered or not.  It is a normal pack behavior asserting dominance.  I have had males and females display this behavior and so have my friends.  And no my dogs are always neutered or spayed..not the point here.

Well, the only time that male  ‘dogs’ normally do this to female ‘dogs’ is when the female is in heat and the male has not been neutered.  That is why when a dog is neutered that they don’t do it very often; and when they do it is not a sexual thing.  You must have unaltered dogs, or else there would not be this activity between your male and his ‘bride’.  Dogs are not like humans as far as the male having had a vasectomy and a female that has had a hysterectomy still do the deed…but dogs only do it when the female is in heat and the male has not been altered.

To each his own on this behavior.  If mine did it on people or even other of my dogs causing altercations, I would take issue with him for sure.  But when he indulges himself with his own "bride" I am not going to get in his face about being a dog.  He usually likes to take her to another room for privacy anyway lol.. Sometimes we civilize them to the point where we expect them to be "little people" not dogs.

Desi was neutered before 4 months old.  He does it sometimes and I have been told that humping is not always sexual behavior – especially if the dog is neutered.  I have probably only seen Desi do this three or four times in over two years.  You need to stop them calmly by gently touching them and picking them up, or removing the object while telling him that is not the way to play with that toy.

That won’t always stop it. Heck probably 80% of the time it doesn’t

Gimli, my 3 month old, is always humping his big toys. I am not liking this and wondering what you all do about this behavior?
