Dog mounts other dogs non-stop?
Ok.I know, he should be neutered, but we are going on holiday tomorrow and I want to be able to look after my dog when he had his operation.
A friend of mine is looking after my dog and we sometimes walk her dog and mine together. No matter if there is a male or female, my dog will mount the other one and won't stop it. He has lots of exercise, so it can't be that. I was wondering if it is a dominance thing, but surely, that is too much.
Does anyone know why he is so persistant? He is usuallly very quiet and never does any naughty things, only when he gets together with other dogs, he mounts them in a bullying way.
Does anyone know what I could do before he gets neutered?
Answers:
First of all, despite what almost everyone else here has said, having your dog neutered will probably NOT solve your problem. Sometimes it does, but you can't count on it, and if a dog has a history of habitually doing this - as you indicate yours does - neutering may remove the hormonal urge, but it will not break the acquired habit. It will be up to you to do that.and the secret to breaking the habit is the same as for anything else you want to teach your dog - patience and persistence.
Every time your dog mounts another dog - and I mean EVERY time, stop him immediately, firmly, and separate him from the other dog. You don't have to hurt him, but you do have to make it crystal clear to him every time he does it that you will not tolerate it. If you only do it sometimes, the dog will learn that you only do it sometimes and will persist. I promise you that if you are consistent about your training it will not take long for you to break the habit.
I wish you success because outside of outright aggression, this is the most annoying habit any dog can acquire. It not only casts a bad light on dogs for people who don't particularly care for dogs in the first place, but it also makes both you and your dog look bad in the eyes of other dog lovers. When you get right down to it, responsible dog owners know that there is no behavior that is not correctable by consistent and patient training, so if your dog exhibits an unacceptable behavior, it tells other dog lovers that you don't really care about your dog - or other dogs or people, for that matter.
And the answer is not to try to keep your dog away from other dogs and people - quite the opposite. The more you socialize your dog, the more opportunity you will have to correct his behavior, and the faster and better he will learn what is and is not acceptable behavior.
Your dog is doing this due to his not being sterilized. Other than reprimanded the actions (telling him "no" and pulling him off), there is nothing you can do.
Once he has been neutered, these actions will stop.
Shoot the dog.
Poor Doggie.
I hope the next time your 'Gettin it on'
The dog jumps all over you and stops YOUR fun!!
LOL!
Gotta Take him to the V E T S (LOL, so used to saying it like that, coz my dog goes nuts at the mention of a vet!)
If you are going on holiday tell the person who is minding it what he is like keep him on a lead when other dogs are about so he cant get over to the other dogs if other dogs come over just pull him off them and walk on. tell him he is a good boy when he walks away.
When you get back from holiday get his operation done, even if you got it done now he doesnt really need much recovery time its done one day he's collected next and there aren't no stitches to worry about he will be groggy for a few hours next minute he's up running like nothing happened.
This is definatly a dominance thing. I had the same problem with one of my dogs, and she is female!!
What I have found to help is that you have to show the dog that the only boss around is YOU! Keep him on a lead when around other dogs, and when he tries to mount them pull hard on the lead and say NO, BAD BOY or something like that, he'll get the drift of things. The important thing is that it must be clear to your dog that you are dominating him and that when you say no, then that darn well means NO!!
It might take a couple of days but he should catch on quickly and you (and your dog) will be fine
Good luck.
keep him away from other dogs till u have him done
Just wait till you come back off your jollies and get him neutered immediately cause it won't stop till you do, its not fair on him and not fair on you either, he might pick on the wrong dog and end up with nasty bites all over him, make that appointment asp and have a lovely holiday too.
Neutering will not stop him mounting. It is dominance trait. You need to stop him by instilling your authority on him. As he is obviously not going to be used at stud(you are considering neutering) you can be very firm with him. Next time he does it grab him by the scruff of his neck, push him onto his back and growl at him as if you were another more dominant dog. Keep him there till he relaxes then let him up and praise him gently. You may need to do this a number of times till he gets the message. Just be grateful he is not attacking the other dogs as that would mean legal action.
This is normal, hormonal activity. Get him a stuffed animal. Having him neutered is a fantastic idea; however, that will not stop him from mounting other dogs on a whem like he does. He really needs a stuffed animal to befriend. That should take care of the problem.
Hes horney.
Its a dominance thing, he is asserting his alpha male status, neutering will probably help, but if its become a habit it may take a bit of training.
There is a way to stop him, but its a wierd one you probably wont want to try, it involves you doing it to him, so you assert your alpha male status and put him below you, as it were, it will work, but youre gonna feel wierd doing it!.
