Why does your dog hump people?

Best Answer

When a dog humps your leg, it is usually due to over-excitement and bad manners. It is unlikely that the dog is showing dominance over you. This humping behaviour is nothing to do with sex.

You must stop your dog from doing this to you or anyone else as you are the one your dog should listen to, and he or she must KNOW that. Go to an obedience class, take lots of walks (at least one walk daily for 20-30 minutes) where the dog is under control (that is the reason for taking the obedience classes first). When you dog starts to hump your leg, just say firmly NO and push him quickly off, no wishy washy pushes either, just quick and firm.

Dogs hump as a form of dominance. When they hump other dogs they are trying to claim dominance over them. It is the same reason why dogs try to hump people.
