I feel a little weird asking about this. When we first got Toby he right away started "humping" and I remember thinking "wow..really? already?" I would have thought it would come closer to when he was 6 months for some reason.

Well then he stopped for quite awhile. What I didn't realize was that his stopping coincided with my son taking a trip over seas. Well my son came back Monday and the "naughty" behavior has resumed although now it is all directed at my son.

Toby is only 15 weeks old but I guess it's never too young. Is there anything I can do about this...or should do? I do of course tell him no and make him go away from the family for a few minutes, but I just wonder if there's something I can be doing to help Toby. Especially since the behavior had completely stopped with the departure of my son.
