9 week old puppy bonking other dogs head?!

[Cedars]

Well he certainly didn't learn it from us!

Any ideas if this is normal for a male dog to bonk a bitch this early?!?!

Xx

well boys will be boys. he may well be ready for the early chop. its a natural reaction same as boy babies get erections.

He's only 9 weeks....!

Its a dominance thing. female and male dogs will do it to try and assert dominance over another dog. Perfectly normal until they learn how to behave.

 

[Cedars]

ThNk you! So should I be leaving him doing it or stopping him or what? Xxx

He`s just practising! Ignore him;we have had some of our precocious bullie puppies give it a go at five weeks.

I would nip it in the bud, make a distracting noise or distract him with a toy, can't be much fun for the bitch! My pup humps cushions (before eating them ) but I just take them off him.

Chloe doesnt seem to mind, the little hussy! I will distract him though its most uncouth. CC how is floofy?!

Sleeping off a very busy day yesterday, there's a piccy thread down there somewhere, he's doing great, never stops, fantastic attitude, everyone who meets him becomes a fan! You've it all ahead of you
