Ruby is 3.5 months old she is a minature poodle. Quincy is an almost 5 year old Chinese Crested. These 2 get along very well despite Quincy's hatred for puppies. They will play together sleep together and all around like each other's company. BUT.....I noticed today that when they play, Quincy walks around her in circles very close to her, he tries to keep his head by her neck and all of a sudden he tries to hump her. Ruby's reaction is to plunk her bottom on the ground until he walks away...works for me. Quincy IS neutered and has been from the time he was 6 months old, I have only ever owned 2 of teh same sexed dogs, 2 girls. I know they did this to each other but since both were girls and both were fixed I never really gave it any thought.
I know Roo will be spayed as well as soon as she hits 6 months, but I am worried about him hurting her, as I said right now she chooses to sit down but will she always, or will he actually penetrate her and hurt her?
Also with the 2 of them, there seems to be no "alpha dog" shouldn't there be one? Is it normal to not have 1 or maybe I am missing it, not sure.
As I said they do play very well together and are quite content with each other but this one thing worries me. I don't want her hurt, or her insides damaged obviously.
