My dog(F 1 Year old)tried to hump my arm

[rue]

Is it normal for a female dog to hump? If not then is she gay?

@rue Humping is usually due to over excitement. Definitely does not mean she’s “gay”, this is one of the more absurd things I’ve seen on the internet today

 

[abrother]

@shstlws01 Agreed haha! And what if the dog IS gay? What then?

 

[shstlws01]

@abrother LOL right? Like, “no child of mine”

@rue It's normal for all animals.

@rue What

@rue In my experience it was totally normal. Two female dogs - a pitbull / lab mix (very “alpha”), and a miniature Pinscher (even more “alpha-er”). The only thing they had in common was their dominant natures. Is your dog a boss bitch, or nah not really?

@imagebeastmarkbeast That is very outdated thinking. Humping is not out of dominance or “alpha”.

Humping is arousal or frustration

@godly_wife Yeah, I don’t know what it is. They were just both very assertive dogs. Take it easy.
