Anyway, this is embarrassing, but last night when I went to pick him up from inside his pen he started humping my arm. Isn't 3 months too young for that??? Will getting him neutered help?? I am a little freaked out and could use any advice that someone could offer. Thanks!! |
Franklin started humping around that age. Some people wait until 6 months but some people say the sooner the better. Nowadays, it's safe to it pretty early. It's just a matter of when you and your vet are comfortable doing it. Getting neutered will help, but until then, just discourage the behavior. He's only done it 4 or so times and hasn't done it since.
