Intact male in the bedroom - Page 2

Oh, my. I'm not going to lie, this one made me giggle a bit.

Boot the crate out of your bedroom and get that boy some obedience training before he decides he's the dominant male in your home.

Bingo, KariM!

Let me try to sum up this expert advice, and correct me if I am misreading it:

1) Don't panic and neuter him;

2) Try to figure out if he thinks my noisy wife is being hurt by me;

3) Move his crate out of the bedroom for at least awhile;

4) Do more OB or at least make sure he knows I'm alpha.

Do I have this right?  Thanks so much for all the help!

What needs to be done, is the dog needs to be corrected, as you would do in double handling in OB.

My suggestion is to have a collar, on dead ring, and have a third person correct him when he starts making a fit.

Please send me pics of you guys and I might have time to donate to the cause. It is for the breed, remember.

LOL....sorry. Couldn't help myself.

lmao John...

Yes MVF, you got it right!

Gee, I thought I was alone with this problem that is never discussed among gentle people. In my case it was always a very randy female GSD who wanted to join in the action.

It did not seem to matter if I said "Hey, you're not my type." "You're too hairy and close to the ground." "I don't like those teeth." "Interracial-okay. Interspecies-NO!"

The only solution was to again shove her out of the bed, put her out of the room and pay no attention to the scratching on the door. Distracting, yes.

Okay, this is no laughing matter. I clearly recall a similar situation I read about in a book on dog training. In this case, it was a small dog, but he, too, was clearly taking too much interest in the sexual activity between his owners.

The trainer told the owner that the dog was sexually interested in his wife, and jealous of him, the husband, and if he didn't follow the trianer's advice, the dog was liable to attack him one day.

He told the man to boot the dog out of the bedroom, and for both the husband and wife to take charge of the dog's obedience training so the dog would clearly know that they were both alpha members of the pack.

The owner thought the trainer was being ridiculous, and blew him off.

A short while later, the dog DID attack him, and did some serious damage to his face and hands, in spite of being a little powder-puff bichon frise or similar breed. The owner had him euthanized.

Like I said, no laughing matter. Get that horny youngster out of the bedroom NOW!!

Sunsilver,

Yes, it is a serious situation. But you have to admit, it is on the funnier side of things.  On that note, I never heard of a dog being sexually jealous between humans. I will let my male, who hasn't had a female yet, (and he is 3 years old and intact) in the bedroom. Never had a problem. I also let my other dogs in the buildings but not 3 in the bedroom.

People need to sit back, pop a cold one and relax for a change. BTW, it is up to me to laugh. Pretty sure in a year or two Bucko will be laughing also. I am not laughing at Bucko. I mean come on now, that person has bigger balls than I do, to state what he did. Kudos to Bucko.

Blitz leaves the room and comes back later. My other GSD did the same thing, Both were neutered.

My mother's Great Pyrenees male was also very sexually interested in her. He turned 2 and they bred him for the first time. Since then, he has not shown anymore sexual interest in her.

That is my only experience with it.

I will say that I do NOT tolerate any dog growling at me. Don't let him get away with it again. Consistency is the best training tool.
