My trainer confirmed it's a dominance thing as well. All you can try to do is train it out of them. Every time Mouse got to humping poor ol' Teddy I'd tell her to stop. What made it even more comical was that her Teddy was almost as big as she was. She'd look like she was between Teddy's leg and Teddy's leg would be a flappin' in the breeze! I'd give the command to STOP! but I'd get so tickled I start laughing. Sometimes she'd bend over so far her head would hit the floor! I told her it gave her "bed head"! LOL! I think I embarrassed her because she'd cock her head at me and then lay down and bury her head in her paws. She seemed to calm down for a while but every once in a while she'd get to playing with Teddy and then it would start again. I'd just give poor ol' Teddy a break and take him away from her. I told her it wasn't lady like to do that in public. She never listened!

Mouse's Mommy
Yup. Muffin RIP was a girl. She had a stuffed doggie that was bigger than her when I gave it to her as a puppy. It lived as long as Muffin and survived many trips through the washer and drier, however, it showed it, too. Muffin would take that stuffed doggie, which we named "Doggie" and she'd flip "him" onto his back and go to town and she did that all of her life. I swore she was going to go bald, because she'd get her little head all the way down to the floor!
