I tend to agree. If you laugh when they do it, then they are going to do it again. Dolly & Desi will repeat stuff that they did that I laugh at, even though it wasn’t laughed at later. With Desi, when I just move him a little and tell him not to do that to Dolly, or to a toy…and one time it was my arm when I had a sweater on. He never did my arm again, and when he is doing it to Dolly he isn’t even close enough to do anything…but I think sometimes something must prompt it…and maybe like someone said earlier that maybe they rub against something that just feels good…but I just tell him in a normal voice and don’t yell or scold.

It started out several times per day and always when company was here .... the sound of happy conversation served as some kind of an aphrodesiac for him. What an embarassment! I would have to tell him to "get a room" and remove him to an empty part of the house. :) Man he was a sex fiend. I've heard that chihuahuas are "worse" this way than some other breeds. Can anyone confirm?
