| Female humping female??? Okay so I've been watching my sisters maniacal Fox Terrier for the last week. It was really tough at first because Bella is very anti-social (my fault- didn't socialize her enough) and the same with my sisters dog Hunter. So for the first 4 days they fought non-stop and were scared to death of each other. Well, they have started playing together (it's oh-so-cute!!!) and things are going great but Hunter (female/spayed) has started to try to hump my little Bella. It's very disconcerting and has me a little weirded out. Also, poor Bella will lay on her back for Hunter to "rub" her tummy (like we do) and poor Hunter has no clue what to do so she just nibbles her tummy. It's just so funny to watch Bella throw herself on her back in hopes of a tummy rub from Hunter and Hunter has no clue what to do. |

| My female humps my male Everytime I catch her doing this I tell her NO so she knows its unacceptable. The reason (I hear) she does this to him is because she is showing him she's the boss. |

| Maybe that's it. Bella seems to be submissive towards her so maybe Hunter is just showing her dominance. |

| I agree it is just showing dominance. I would not interfere with this because in doing so you interfering with the dog pack order which in the future can and will cause problems. |

| My 4.5lbs female shih tzu humps my 21lb. poodle mix male ALL the time...and I usually stop it when I see it. I've heard that you should stop this behavior but your post brings up an interesting question. Should you just let it go and let them work it out?? I don't know... |
