humping

hi all
so it begins, whats the best way to stop Diesel humping, he is now 23wks and i dont wont to get he neutred but not sure how to stop him:#-o  

Lift him away (firmly but gently) from whatever he's humping and tell him "No!", then distract him with a toy or something (not a treat).

If he's humping dogs (or trying to), then he's probably testing out his boundaries and trying to establish a dominance. As above if he's on the lead; if he's not then call him back to you and if he returns to you, then he can have a treat for coming back to you. Most dogs won't appreciate being humped though and will tell Diesel so!

Lynda's advice is good. Using a toy is often the most successful method, as they provide a rewarding distraction, rather than just a reward. Using something like a treat only presents a reward, which means dogs can sometimes associate humping with getting a treat and so they might do it more often. Using a toy distracts them from the actual activity of humping.

thks will try this

Great advice above

Agree with the advice above ... will add that along with the appropriate action, it does take some patience and consistent responses to make progress with the humping

Can't add more. Just be aware that neutering won't stop behaviours, humping is dominance too not just sexual

Yes afraid you just have to keep distracting him it will get better.
Good luck  

Exactly what Lynda says!

Even after neutering it can be sexual as well, Much to my complete surprise i found Marley tied Laska on her last season and he's been done a year. although testicals are the main source of sexual hormones they still get produced elsewhere in the body.
