Humping is a very natural behavior for puppies, but knowing that info doesn’t make it any less annoying (or embarrassing!) if they are doing it to you, a guest, or even a small child! 🫣

Hey, it happens. BUT there’s things you can do to both prevent it AND stop it from happening before the action gets worse, more frequent and even more difficult to break as your puppy grows into an adult dog.

In our latest Ask A Puppy Trainer Show, Episode 155, Sparky shares how you can quickly get a handle on humping before it becomes a helluva habit to break!
