I'm not sure what to do about our pups humping behaviour as my partner and I thought it funny when he started doing it and still find it amusing - we could be setting ourselves up for problems later! Are you planning to neuter your pup? I think the behaviour settles down when they are neutured/castrated.

Some of the worst humpers I know were neutered before puberty.
Very few entire fully adult members of both species hump unless a bitch is in season when both will.
