How do you get PJ's for the summer?

Reward for not humping:
I don't seem to understand how this will work in Sabu's mind. I need some clarification. Several of you stated once he stops humping Julie when I've brought to his attention and then reward him. For me, I'm not sure how this is to work. Doing it this way sounds like I'm promoting humping in a way: Hump, hump, stop and then get rewarded for the act and stopping. Currently, I feel this is rewarding rather than a correction of behavior. Help me understand this type of correcting him.

By the way, I'll also check into the belly bands (I never heard of that term) when I go to Petco here soon.

Thank you.
