I was watching K-9 with john Belushi over the weekend and the woman told him to train your dog you give them alot of love a good diet and mount them...Does this mean hump them kind of(i wont)or is this just for the movie to be funny?

I haven't seen the movie so I'm not sure if it was meant to be funny, but I assume it was - however dogs mount each other in a show of dominance. Only the alpha male in a pack is allowed to mate, so in mounting each other they are trying to show they are the dominant doggie.
Sometimes when trying to exert dominance over your dog (and yes you should be the alpha in your "pack") you can stand over them with your legs holding them just in front of their hips. You're fully standing, there's nothing even remotely "sexual" about this position. It's simply exerting your dominance over your dog. You can hold them quite well in this position, especially for administering medications.

Neutering will not stop him mounting. It is dominance trait. You need to stop him by instilling your authority on him. As he is obviously not going to be used at stud(you are considering neutering) you can be very firm with him. Next time he does it grab him by the scruff of his neck, push him onto his back and growl at him as if you were another more dominant dog. Keep him there till he relaxes then let him up and praise him gently. You may need to do this a number of times till he gets the message. Just be grateful he is not attacking the other dogs as that would mean legal action.

Mount my dog? I dont know if HE would like that. Although he has been known to mount peoples legs from time to time.

It was just a movie-please don't take the "mounting" comment seriously.
