Why Do Dogs Hump Things?
 

My dog tries to hump my leg all the time or if im laying down even my shoulder, but the stupid thing has never had sex so how does it know what humping is? Its a girl dog as well so what does it expect to get out of humping a leg?

I used to have some girl toy poodles that acted like that. It grossed me out. I don't know maybe it feels good for them. Why do people hump things :)

same reason guys rub their dicks when watching TV etc.

:1orglaugh ... Thread closed.

It's a dominance thing. They're trying to put you in your place and show you that they're in charge.

Why do guys hump things.... They just want to get off :1orglaugh

I think she's trying to let you know what you should do

:helpme:error:helpme

Just practicing? :pimp

Watching tv, standing in the kitchen, laying in bed, sitting in a chair, walking from the kitchen to the chair, sleeping, shopping, taking out the garbage... :1orglaugh

My oldest neutered male has done the dominance humping of the other dogs since I got him 11 years ago. He never has humped anything else and even now with his hindlegs completely disabled, he will still try to hump the other dogs using the dog he's humping to prop him up ;) Then the other dog walks away and he falls over. I get amused so easily.........

total dominance thing. Hump him, and show him who's boss.

Because they are stupid

Males must mate,I'd penetrate a rattle snake if I could hold it down

It's not a dominance issue. They're just horny, and even if they've never had sex before, it's an innate part of their nature. Kind of like how spiders know how to spin a perfect web without ever having been taught. It's just hardwired into their genetics.
