micky wont leave jade alone everytime she moves he gets up and is humping her and sometimes its her head !!! i have tried putting him out the room and i tried tapping him on the nose but neither worked he just wont leave her she then snaps at him and i dont want him to get bitten but he still doesnt even move. how can i stop him doing it.

How old are they? Is she coming into season? Tapping him on the nose will do absolutely nothing more than annoy him. Let her snap at him - she's the best one to teach him some manners, but if he still ignores her requests that he get lost, put him in another room for an hour or so.

he is 2 1/3 and she is 8months and where OH had her from said he was in season at 6months. i put him out and when he comes back in he is worse and gets really excited at seeing her again. He even shot his load on the floor he was that excited.

It could be that she didn't ahve a proper season at 6 months, or not wanting to worry you but the most common time for a Pyometra (life threatening womb infection) to happen is two months after a season.

Has she been off colour at all?  Drinking more?  Male dogs often find the smell of infection exciting, as if it were an in season bitch.

Even a little sore spot that has pus will do this.

We have only had her since Thursday, i dont have any money till the middle of January to take her to the vets. shes eating her food and drinking ok though. She doesnt eat alot.

I would say either she didn't come into season when you were told, and is coming in now (she's at a normal age for it) or she has an infection which needs urgent vet treatment - offer to pay by instalments - if it's pyometra she could be dead within days.

If she's coming into season she'll need to be kept away from your male dog for 3 weeks - can either of them be boarded out with friends for the duration? Obviously you won't be so irresponsible as to take a chance that they might mate - she's far, far too young apart from anything else.

In the longterm one or both of them is going to have to be neutered if your lives aren't going to be a misery for three months of every year.

Do you plan to bred the dogs indepenantly (not togther!) if all relivant tests are done and if both are good specimens of the breed? if not i think you should think about having somebody neutred :-) ....

I dont want to get him neutered as i dont want him to become lazy i cant afford to have him neutered at the moment its really expensive cos he is so big.

Neutering my males hasn't made them lazy! 

i have a neutered rottie male at home and he definatley anything but lazy, we do agility,flyball,obedience,we went to a companion show and he came second in the fastest dog, he was only beat by a 10th of a second by a whippet, so he is definatley not lazy, if anything it stopped him looking for females all the time and concentrate on what he was supposed to be doing ie agility or flyball, when our bitch is in season now he still eats and he is not running after her all the time he does not loose weight any more when she is in season.

I've had neutered dogs in the past and none of them have been lazy! Quite the opposite! There were many positives too, one of them being the avoidance of attempts to wander off in search of in season bitches which, IMHO, was likely to be a deal more dangerous to the dog's health. I've no intention of breeding from Nipper either and his date with destiny at the vet is now only a month away! 

With respect, I'm concerned that you seem unable to afford veterinary treatment too because no matter how expert the advice on this forum, it cannot be seen as a substitute for a consultation (and possibly treatment) with a vet.

I would have thought the Vet would be willing to accept a down payment for urgent treatment. Also, you should, with respect, consider getting pet insurance, because, if you are having problems, with a consultation, you are going to be in big trouble if they get really ill!.  IMHO

Best wishes

I would agree with the others that yu should have one of them neutered. 

At the moment as the male is fully mature this would be my choice for now (surprised you brought in an adolescent bitch without doing so first, as even if she had a season at 6 months she woudl be due again quite shortly and you need time for the neutering to make the male fully infertile).

I would also spay the bitch after she is over a year old half way between seasons, giving ehr body and mind time to mature.

As JG says she is about the right age for most medium size dogs to come in season, and maybe dependig on who you got her from, you were told she had a season already to get ypou to take her, seeing as a bitch about to come in season would be a problem with yu owning an entire male.

Either way you really need to see the Vet with her  and get you boy in to be castrated unless yu can ahve him stay with someone for 4 weeks from when she comes in season.

Have you dabbed her vulvqa with a tissue?  This should show if she is in season, or ahs a discharge.

the vets in oz will let you pay of a desexing before it is done and the rspca assist families with desexing their pets. give you dog wlefare agencies a call and see if they can help. If he isnt done or she isnt you will more then likely end up with puppies if a male really wants to mate no matter what you do he will try his hardest and frustrate you. They tend to cry (or call) if they can smell a female in heat and cant get to her.

please dont tap your dog on the nose it is the least affective way of getting your dog to behave one or two things will happen he will either be terrified of you and he will end up biting you if he is scared. Let you girl handle it she will snap at him and  most of the time it works (but if she is in season dont let him near her)

PLease take her to the vets. Its not worth risking her health over. You could try and find a charity vets like rspca or dogs trust which will help with the costs or maybe allow you to spread the costs.
My friends dog is neutered and he has sooooo much energy. What do you acually mean by lazy? Cause if  its to do with weight gain then talk to a vets or a food helpline (such as burns). Hope this makes sense. And hope it all works out.
