Hi, I just bought a 3 year old old tyme bulldog, I have owned boxers before this but my last one died about a year ago and I decided I wanted to get another dog but different breed. I did not want a puppy so I decided on an older dog. Anyway, I found a lovely 3 year old bulldog. He is great in every way apart from jumping up at people when they have something in their hands, counter surfing for food and trying to hump people when you are low down, when I mean low down I mean if you get down to play with him, or you are bending down looking in the kitchen cupboard. He has not been fixed and I was wondering if there is a dog in heat in my street that he can smell.I have only had him a week and I am hoping this is just him being anxious in his new surroundings. I am trying to train him to stop him doing these things by giving him a firm sit command and rewarding when he does or just leaving the room and saying no firmly when he tries to hump people. I have had limited success, though I will keep trying as its still early days. I am just a bit concerned he tries to hump my 10 year old son, as the dog is very heavy and powerful when he does it. Of course they are never alone together so it should not happen but I want him trained to make sure it never gets a chance to happen. Apart from the jumping he is a great dog tbh, never barks or cries, great on the lead and off the lead he gets 3 30 minute walks a day, house trained very food orientated and knows basic commands like sit, paw, stay. Also he has not lay in his bed since he came to my house, he just pulls the cover of and lies on that in the middle of the floor. Anyway any one have similar experience with the mounting and how they stopped it
