| ummm, what do I do about dog humping? This is my first time raising a puppy.
We adopted Rocco last summer, then a few weeks ago we got Bella, who is 10 weeks old.
Rocco is neutered and approx. 6-7 years old. He is not a social dog, whoever owned him previously never had him around other dogs or people. He wanted nothing to do with Bella at first. Now he is sniffing her, and will even lie on my bed with her and me, as long as I am in the middle. He will even act like he is attempting to play (he doesnt really know how). But the last few days have left me bewildered...I am not sure what to think about his humping on Bella. I know he is trying to show her dominance ...maybe? Someone told me puppies hump each other, it's just what they do...it's natural. I am assuming he is altered, I see no testicles. The vet has never told me any difference.
Somebody please explain this to me!!! I am not sure if I should be ignoring, scolding or distracting!
Thanks ahead of time! |
