The Huffpost states

"A Jackson, Tenn., resident surrendered his "gay" dog for euthanization to the Jackson Rabies Control Animal Shelter on Jan. 29 because he saw his male pitbull/American bulldog mix "humping" another male dog, the Examiner reports."

the article also states

"Although animals can be gay, dogs mount each other to express dominance, for play or because of nervousness/excitement, Psychology Today notes."

Which is something I thought all dog owners/lovers knew.
