Having trained my four dogs I do not have this issue. I believe they are not copulating but, trying to establish dominance. I'm not sure that particular behavior is proof that they will hump anything. My friend had a female poodle who used to hump furry toys and she wasn't rubbing her parts on it. I think she was small and felt like a boss in doing it.

What happens when they aren't trained against? How far would they go? I claim the untreated and unneutered males would actually ejaculate.

Personally having been raised going to dog shows and multiple people in my family owning grooming shops I've never seen a dog ejaculate. I've seen many untrained dogs humping people's legs though.

Do people in these situations let dogs do this as long the dogs would prefer is the real question.
