For the past two days, Radar has been humping Lilly every chance he gets. At first, she turned around and snapped at him when he did it, and he would back off for a little bit. Now she just gives me this pitiful look like "Mom, do something!" I correct and reorient him when I catch him. He doesn't even manage to mount her in the correct place, he will mount her side or head just as happily as her backside.
What could be causing this? Lilly is 11 yrs old and Radar is 9. Both are fixed and were fixed fairly early in life. Lilly has always been the dominant one, and Radar has a very submissive personality so he has never challenged her. Could he be making a move to become the new dominant dog? Should I let him take over, or try and protect Lilly? There is no agression involved, just this pesky mounting. Any suggestions on how to control my horny toad?
