Just joking lol Why don't you neuter him?

I am quite litterally speachless

 

How old is he now, i thought he is a couple of years isn't he ? If you intend to get him neutered i would get on and do it before it becomes a learnt behaviour. If not maybe try some distraction technique.

 

Why don't you neuter him?

I wanted to wait until he's fully mature before I did, with him been a large dog about 3 years old.

 

If you are going to neuter then you may aswell do it as soon as possible. You can try distraction techniques but if that doesnt work i would neuter.

 

Yes your all right, I think we shall have to get him done, I'll phone the vet and sort something out.

 

What happens if you give the 'leave it' command?

If you can't distract him with a command, then you could try a pet corrector or even squirting him with a tiny bit of lukewarm water...I know some folk will not like this suggestion but it doesn't hurt the dog and if you don't want to neuter him just yet...

You need to show him that it's unacceptable so if a verbal command isn't working, then either a squirt of water or pet corrector is worth a try.

Neutering doesn't always stop humping; humping can be down to excitement.

 

owned by a lab, a very kind request. If you could please type in normal text. Thank you.

 

I wouldn't assume that the humping is sexual it can often be a stress reliever so neutering may or may not help. So it could be excitement or nervousness that is causing it.
As it's always happening in the same place has something happened there, has something changed there etc?

You could try distracting with an activity before it happens tossing a non rolling toy, playing touch etc.

Or you could just turn around and go back inside if when you notice he's becoming tense ,excited come back out when he's calm and repeat. It may take sometime but well worth it.

ETA wasn't Dillion attacked a few weeks back? has this come about following the attack? if so it could be related and I'd be very reluctant to use adversives on a dog who could be nervous.
