| Female yorkie acting like a male I was playing with Macy on the floor the other night and felt her sitting on my leg. I looked down and she was "getting friendly" with my leg. If I wouldn't know better I would have thought she was a male. She was spayed at 6 months. Does anyone else have this happen with their girls? This has happened twice since then. What is going on?

| After Nala was almost 1 1/2 years old she would randomly hump her stuffed dragon. It's the only thing she humps, she's never humped a human or another dog, but I too was floored because she was a girl. |

| When a dog humps they are showing dominance and it's not sexual.

| I'm glad to hear Macy isn't a freak. I was starting to wonder if I needed to find a therapist for her to set her straight.

| Uni humps all the time, but her beds only and never people or other dogs. She was spayed last week and she's right back to where she was. i think she thinks it's work out time.

| Sophie Kate will hump my arm also (yes that sweet little face in my avatar does that). I was freaked out at first and asked my Vet why, like the other said it is dominance. The advice I was given is do not make a big deal out of it, just remove her from your arm. The only person she does this to is me, no one else. I feel so lucky.

| My little lady has one toy, a stuffed monkey, that she humps multiple times per day. Never humps anything else. At first I thought it was disgusting - now I think it is absolutely precious. Youtube has tons of videos of yorkies humping stuffed animals, so it must be fairly common. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Both of my girls have tried to hump my cat.........as if the cat didn't like them much to begin with - they're certainly not making any points now!

| Lil Muffin had a stuffed doggie that she did that to all of her life. The stuffed doggie had been washed and dried so many times that he had shrunk and was threadbare, but I could never take it away from her. She loved that little stuffed doggie more than any toy. I had given it to her when she was a puppy. She wagged him around with her everywhere she went. We always referred to it as "Doggie". I'd ask her where "Doggie" was and she'd go get it and bring it to us.

| Wow :O now that's news to me. The female maltese I had never did that O_O''... I do not own a yorkie yet, hopefully soon though, so I guess it's good to know these things ahead of time because I know I would've freaked out for sure LOL ! Still cute though. *-*
