Why Are Our Fixed Chihuahuas Humping Our Ferret?

Posted on February 22, 2011 by Donna

I have a male ferret I let run around the downstairs of the house and we have two chihuahuas and one mix of Chihuahua, Yorkie, & Dachshund, ages 11, 9 and 1 years respectively. And the 9 and 1 year old have recently started humping him. Why are they doing this? They all have been fixed, so, why?

It is an assertion of dominance.

    Maybe it still has its instinct. Just guessing.
