Why is she doing this? Is there a way to make her stop? She gets very chewy before she starts humping and she 13 pounds so u can deffinitly feel her there her paws digging into u and stuff Im really going crazy with this. Any help is greatly needed and I am very thankful for it.
I think I don't understand something; you can't stop her from humping you? Lots of dogs hump other dogs or toys, it's a way of showing dominance, but you should never allow them to hump you. I don't think I would use a squirt bottle, I would simply push her away and say no, I would remove myself, if this didn't work. I wouldn't ever let her do it for a second, always stop it. Maybe she needs a teddy.

Another suggestion, is you need to establish dominance with her, she isn't respecting you. One of the ways to do this is to ask her to sit before you place her food bowl down. Have her sit, and stay before you put the food down. Once you set the food down, have her stay a couple of seconds before you give the release command. If she goes for the food before the command is given, pick up the bow, and keep repeating this until she stays for a few seconds. Each time you feed her do this, this will help teach her that you are to be respected.
