Here lately, whenever I get down to Lukas level (on the ground playing with him) and even sometimes just standing close to him, he will turn around and try to either sit on me or very very close to me. Or he will turn his backside around to where he is leaning on me, practically putting his entire body weight against me. So much, that if I move back quickly, he will almost fall completely over!!
Whenever he starts doing this, I usually spin him around to where he is not leaning or sitting on me but he tries to go right back to that position again. So I usually try and move or focus his attention on/to somewhere else. When my now ex used to bring her Shih tzu over, he would always try to "sit" on her when they were playing (if you could call it playing). That, I know was him trying to be dominate and would always pull him away. So is this the same thing and what is the best way to break him of this? Also, what is the best way to introduce him to smaller dogs. He does fine with dogs his size and larger, of course, they can go toe for toe with him, but I'm just very cautious to have him around any smaller breed of dog.
