About twice a week I take Timber to his "girlfriends" house so they can play and wear out eachothers energy. Everything has gone great up until today.
After about 5 minutes of play, he started mounting her (front and back). I could tell Liz wasnt exactly amused by it and slowly and surely she started changing her demeanor with him. She no longer wanted to play and would lay down against the fence so that he couldnt do it. Then she would growl a little and show some teeth. I was just observing wondering if I should do something or if I should allow Liz to be the one to tell him no.
I ended up walking over to Timber and putting his leash back on him so that everytime he tried to mount her, I could tell him "off".
To me it wasnt a dominate mounting but I could be wrong. His little wanger would come out along with the humping and he looked like he was ready to get busy if she would allow him to.
However, he is only going to be 5 months old next month, so I dont know.
What is the best way for me to handle this? I dont want Timber to get the wrong idea that this behaviour is okay and Im not going to keep putting Liz through that torture. She was getting really upset with him.
Thanks
