Vets call it mounting behavior when a dog puts its front legs around another dog and repeatedly thrusts in a humping motion. It isn’t very pleasant for dog owners to witness. Still, unfortunately, it’s simply another instinctive behavior that dogs can’t help but engage in.

Of course, it’s a shared belief that such an act hints at something indecent. The truth is humping is not always triggered by hormones. Dogs do it during play or when they’re excited about hanging out with another dog or their favorite person.

NEXT: Watch out for this; it’s a cry for attention.
