Why won’t my dog quit shoving his snout into men’s crotches?
. We love dogs and cats equally, and reserve treats for questions about your turtle, guinea pig, bird, snake, fish, or other beast.Seven months ago I adopted a dog larger than my other two , and he has this weird habit of walking up to men, shoving his head between their legs, and just standing there. It’s OK when my sons visit; we think it’s funny. But he tries to do it to every man he thinks he likes.
OK, back to tact. You mention in your letter that you and your sons find it funny when the dog goes between their legs. While I don’t doubt that it is hilarious, your reaction at home to this behavior may increase the likelihood that he will do it elsewhere. If he hears laughter and senses excitement when he uses their legs like a croquet wicket, he’s going to assume he’ll get similar encouragement when he does the same to a stranger.
Next time your sons come over, have them calmly ignore the dog when he tries to squeeze under their legs. At the same time, you should distract him with a command—“sit,” “lie down,” or whatever else you’ve worked on with him. This will redirect his mind from the exciting meeting he has scheduled between their knees and onto something you can manage and control. You can then transfer this routine to occurrences outside the house when the dog approaches nonrelatives with similar gusto.
Your dog seems sweet and friendly, and it’s heartwarming to know he’s so comfortable with people. As his new family, you have given him lots of love and attention. I don’t think he’s missing anything. He has everything he needs.

Thanksgiving Conversation Devolves Into Just Stating Things Dog Is Currently DoingPITTSBURGH—After two hours in which they discussed a variety of routine topics with waning enthusiasm, the local Halverson family’s Thanksgiving conversation reportedly devolved this afternoon into simple observations about what their dog was currently doing. “Hey, look at him now,” Jason Halverson said as Bailey, a 13-year-old golden retriever, shuffled from the kitchen into the living room and elicited multiple comments from the relatives, who sources confirmed had exhausted their usual observations about work, school, and holiday traffic. “Bailey sure seems to love that chew toy. He hasn’t dropped it since Ruth and Hank got here. He’s really wagging that tail. And now he’s just staring out the window. What does he see out there? Oh, look, the tired little guy is curled up on the sofa to take a little nap!” At press time, the Halverson family’s Thanksgiving conversation had reportedly devolved into speculations upon what their dog was currently dreaming about.
