I would not be concerned about a 9 week old puppy humping. That is common behavior for puppies. When you see him doing it I would just try to distract him and get him to play with something else. I would not worry about him getting a female pregnant until he is 6 months old and then I would definitely keep him away from females in heat.

I agree with bjh "any bitch not being bred should be spayed"
