"To make your dog stop humping other animals and people, it's good to know what is motivating your dog to exhibit this behavior. Sometimes it is just that need to procreate, and sometimes it is more about being higher and bigger than another animal to kind of control that animal. So, the most - the best possible tool you can have is to teach your dog a very solid leave it command, when you ask your dog to leave something alone, they voluntarily come off and go on and do their own thing. If it continues, the behavior continues and your dog will stop, but then go right back at it, it might be a good time for a time out or managing a little breakaway from the object of affection."
