should i stop my yorkie from humping ?

[CouversMom]

My two don't ever try to hump anything... I had to stop Couv a couple times when before he was fixed, but we really haven't had any issues since. He's found maybe 2 dogs at the dog park in his 3.5 years that he tried to hump and I just told him no and he stopped.

I guess it is a personal preference... If they just hump a toy, it's probably not an issue, but if they are humping people or other dogs, I would definitely stop it.

If they were humping people, I would stop it. If it's their fav toys, I don't think there's anything wrong w/it. Momo tried to hump Princess once (dominance thing), she growled & he backed away. He sometimes humps Turbo, Turbo sits down & Momo can't hump him no more. Momo also tries to hump Mimi, she runs away. Princess only humps her loofa toys, I don't know what it is (12"? teehee!) but that's the only toy she humps & it cracks me up. What's even funnier is when she does it on my bed, naughty girl loll!

My Cook is 3 months old and it was cute at first, but he humps his blanket during play time. I'm a little concerned and is not cute anymore. Not sure if his is normal, but in 3 more months I am getting him neutered. Suggestions please? 🐶™

Has his testicles dropped? This activity helps with that. Joey stopped humping about a month after neutering. I'm not sure why it bothers some people, if I were you, I'd do nothing. Neither reward it nor punish it.

Just me personally...I dont like it. Orion tried to hump Raelle a few times...I put a stop to it, Raelle tried to hump Jersey when we brought her home..I told her no and put a stop to that as well, They dont hump their stuffed animals just each other...I'm not good with that....JMO

Scoobers humped after neuter, he had to be trained not to do so.

Elvis unaltered only tried to hump Princess when she was in heat.

No, his testicles has not dropped yet. I guess it is really not that serious. It doesn't bother me that much. I will be getting him neutered in 3 more months.

Humping will help the testicles to drop and they need to drop before you can get him neutered. Some dog's testicles never drop and the surgery is much more invasive. Best of luck!
