My spayed dog is licking and humping after moving. Is it stress?

Sounds like she has anxiety. If she is not spayed, you should have that done as hormones can be a cause of anxiety. I also suggest you contact a local, professional, in-home dog trainer. They can help you with some behavior modification to lessen her anxiety symptoms. You can also try using some Adaptil. ( https://www.amazon.com/s?k=adaptil+dog+collar&crid=SQKY5YAMUQP3&sprefix=adaptil+dog%2Caps%2C165&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_11 )

Her vagina will probably return to normal size in a few months, this typically happens after a dog is spayed. the redness and itching are probably allergy related, this will need to be checked and treated with allergy meds by a vet. Kennel cough in most cases does not require treatment but she is on antibiotics already so no reason to worry, it will resolve soon. regarding the licking of the spay wound, you need to put an e-collar around her neck for 2 weeks post surgery to prevent this from happening.

Humping behavior is not restricted to male dogs and we often see females performing this behavior. It can be a result of excitement or stress but in some instances can be a form of dominance or aggression. You can try to distract/discourage your dog by offering a toy or play when your dog starts this behavior, or teaching your dog the "leave it" command and applying it to other dogs she may approach. If the behavior is excessive or becoming more aggressive then a consultation with a veterinary behaviorist is recommended. Here is an article with a little more information on ideas to deal with this behavior: https://drsophiayin.com/blog/entry/poodles_embarrassing_greeting_behavior/

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. The humping part is easy - that is because she is listed as not yet spayed. (Even if she is newly spayed, it may be a learned behavior at this point.) The "clinginess" is to be expected after everything in her life has completely changed in the last month. I expect with time and patience it will improve. You can always refuse to pick her up but cuddling and giving attention will help her feel more secure. Consider crate training- but do it slowly if she has never been in one before - many little dogs actually have less anxiety with a crate. If she is still having trouble adjusting in a few weeks, talk to your vet about anti-anxiety medications. There are many great ones for occasional or long-term use with few side effects. They can help tremendously and I prescribe them frequently myself. Best of luck to you and Bella!

I would try a Sentry calming collar to see if that helps. This release calming pheromones when in contact with Kash's skin. I'd also get DAP diffusers, which also release calming pheromones. Play with her every day to tire her out, and distract her with playing and treats when she starts the humping behavior. I hope this helps!

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is not a reason to be concerned. Humping can be an ongoing behavior that may happen from time to time and it is not necessarily due to her being spayed. The scooting could be due to anal gland issues. If she continues to do that, I recommend that you have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment. Best of luck!

Humping is not only a sexual behavior but it also a dominance behavior. It is most likely that she is trying to assert her dominance over the other dogs. This is a link to an article that may answer more of your questions: https://www.whole-dog-journal.com/issues/7_3/features/Mounting-and-Dominance_5615-1.html My recommendation is to get an in-home professional dog trainer to help you. Trying to correct this behavior can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
