Is it Sex Drive that Causes Dogs to Hump Things?

Friday, February 26th, 2010


Why do some neutered male and spayed female dogs try to hump other dogs, toys and even humans?

Is it an unusual sex drive, a hormone deficiency or an over abundance of testosterone?

This is a question that has been puzzling me for some time as I have been in the company of small dogs that seem to have an incessant need to hump certain toys on a constant basis.

In trying to research this subject, I found very little concrete information as to why some dogs do this and others do not.

The only physical reason I could find was that there is a possibility that the dog is suffering from a condition in the genital area that is causing itching or is irritated. Of course, if that is the problem, the constant rubbing of the area on a toy, other dog or even a person just creates more irritation.

The thing to do here, is examine the genital area and if you see irritation, call your vet as he/she can prescribe medication to cure the problem, before it gets to be a habit,

The other possibility is that when the dog tried it once, for whatever reason, it felt good and since no one stopped the behavior, it ultimately became a habit too hard to break. But watching a dog perform its gyrations in front of small children or elderly adults seems to be a bit inappropriate.

Adolescent dogs have a great deal of testosterone, even the neutered ones and a visit to a dog park with all the wonderful smells that abound there, can get even the most calm dog excited.

Since conversation, holding hands or just plain lusting is not a dog’s way of handling its hormones, humping becomes a natural thing to do.

The problem with this “natural behavior” is humping in many cases is a show of dominance, a feeling of power and while I realize that, that can be a nice feeling, a dog can get carried away with it and force another dog into submission.

Forcing another dog into submission can have a profound effect on its personality. Dogs are social creatures and like their human counterparts need to feel good about themselves and their world.

A dog forced into submission by another dog in the Dog Park or anywhere else can easily become afraid of other dogs or suddenly change its personality and become the aggressor.

Socializing your puppy with dogs of both sexes can help orient your dog to sexual behavior that is attracted to the opposite sex; and not to same sex dogs, pillows, toys or humans.

Puppies in play and some adult dogs in play do hump each other.

It may be a show of dominance at that moment, but usually it is done as a part of whatever game they are playing.

What can you do if this mannerism has become a habit that is not only embarrassing to you, but could create an irritation for the dog?

Distraction is the “key word.” It matters not whether your dog is neutered or not. Dogs that are intact do not need to hump everything they see either.

If you are at the Dog Park and your dog is the main target for the day, a good way to stop the encounter is to train your dog to sit on cue. A sitting dog is not an acceptable target. This works for both males and females.

Female dogs learned this on their own, when they did not want to be bothered by adoring males.

If it is your dog that has discovered that humping is fun and you are not seeing the joy in it, your job is to become the distracter.

This will take patience on your part and time, especially since most of us are not on call for our dogs 24/7.

Removing the larger toys that can be humped will help, along with pillows and any other soft objects that appear to be attractive to your dog.

When you are home being watchful of your dog’s actions is the first prerequisite. Whenever your dog starts the action, distract it with a treat, a toy or a walk.

The humping is a habit and habits can be broken, after a few days of being distracted, the habit should become less and less noticeable and eventually will fade away.

Patience and determination are the prime requirements on your part, with distraction being the key element.

Good Luck.

Why has her sex drive decreased and are there any ways to bring out the excitement that was in her when both of you had just started the relationship? Here are some basic methods to increase her sex drive and craving for sex:

1. Foreplay

Most men have no idea or knowledge on how to perform a good foreplay that can arouse a woman physically and emotionally. Foreplay is not only about oral stimulation. It also includes sensual massage on any parts of her body, and the way you treat her before the love making session.

2. Sex toys

Try to communicate with her openly, and make her share with you any sex toys she would like and how she likes to use it. Understand more about what she really enjoys, and helps her to achieve orgasm using that.

3. Express your feelings for her

She will feel great and being cherished if you can tell her how you enjoy the romantic evening and the hot passionate sex with her, this will also make her want to have more sex with you.

4. Orgasm

You need to give her orgasm whenever you have sex with her, this will increase her sex drive as she is looking forward to the pleasure you have always given her. Enjoying the pleasure that she deserves to will get her crave sex like crazy.

Better Female Orgasms – Increasing Libido and Female Orgasm Sensitivity

Monday, November 23rd, 2009
Jonathan Matthews asked:


While there has been a focus on male sexuality enhancement over the past ten years or so, women have often been ignored when it came to sexuality research. The focus now seems to be shifting, and women's sexuality is suddenly attracting many researchers that are looking to improve and enhance female's sex lives. Diagnosing female sexual dysfunctions is the job for a professional, but women should try and understand their own sexuality in order to get the most out of their sex life. There are a variety of techniques that work for different women, and today there are also a number of female sexual enhancement products for both increasing libido as well as enhancing female orgasm sensitivity. This article is intended to shed some light on women's sexual enhancement and increasing female orgasms.

Sometimes women can suffer from a sexual dysfunction and they aren't able to enjoy a healthy sex life as they normally should. While some dysfunctions are more serious than others, many problems are not considered to be major and are easy to understand and even correct. Low female libido is a very common complaint amongst middle aged women, and is nothing to be concerned about. Sex drive is fueled by a number of hormones, and if these hormone levels fluctuate so do female emotions. Keeping these female libido hormones in check is the trick to maintaining a healthy sex drive. Some women can even suffer from decreased orgasm sensitivity, which can be very frustrating. Luckily, there are different techniques that can help, and even some cream products for this problem.

Different techniques can often be the key for increasing female orgasm sensitivity. This includes different positions as well as different stimulation techniques for bringing on female orgasms. Every woman is different, and individuals will need to find what works best for them. Most orgasms are stimulated through the clitoris, usually by rubbing, pressing, or using a vibrator against this hyper-sensitive part of the female anatomy. While this usually works for stimulating orgasms in females, others might find that they prefer vaginal stimulation to reach orgasm. Something that should be understood is that vaginal stimulation rarely results in orgasms, and the clitoris is almost always the easiest trigger for a female orgasm.

Beyond different techniques, there are now a number of effective products for female orgasm enhancement and increasing female libido. Although the past couple of decades have brought countless sexual enhancement products for men, it wasn't until the most recent few years that women's products came to the market. Now there are many natural products for increasing female libido, based on herbs and vitamins that are known to settle hormonal fluctuations in women. These products are all based on research from civilizations around the world, and many women are already taking some of the ingredients in these supplements, like Black Cohosh, Vitamins A, B, C, etc. Alternatively, for women suffering from decreased orgasm sensitivity there now topical creams, also completely natural. These new creams are allowing women that were never able to experience orgasms to reach new heights of pleasure. Being based on natural ingredients, these products are medically approved and safe for women of all ages.

Female sexuality problems have become the focus of a new group of researchers. A high percentage of women suffer from decreasing libido, an inability to come to orgasm, or a number of other sexual problems. While there is no simple answer to female sexuality, there are plenty of techniques and even some different products for female sexual enhancement.
