You should not breed a female dog until she is atleast 2 years of age. any younger and you could run into complications which may result in you loosing the pups as well as the mother....... is it worth it. Plus a female will only let the male breed with her if SHE is ready not YOU.....or him. As far as her mounting him She is showing dominance, and is not mature enought to know they are different (male/female). Also note: Puppies are cute but VERY expensive to breed....... With boxers you have tail docking, and possibly ears, shots as well as general vet checks just to start. And what if there are complications are you prepared to spend the money on Emergency if necessary........ Do the research before the act........ Your pup is like a 7 year old child do you still want your child to have children......???

For one thing don't let your dog breed at six months.. that is way to young and many things can go wrong with mommy and puppies. You need to wait until she is two years old before you breed her. Never breed a six month old dog.. I hope it is not to late for you to stop this..But really you should have known better than let her have puppies at that age.

Basically like the others have said, your female is wayyyy too young to be bred right now. But the behavior she is portraying ("...trying to get on top of the male and acts the way the male should...") is simply showing her dominance over the male. She is trying to be superior to him and is showing that by mounting him. Dogs will do this to eachother to show who's boss between them. Yea, it might be gross, but that's nature for ya....

THE FEMALE IS WAY TO YOUNG TO BREED!!!!! You need to talk to the vet and get some advice on proper breeding procedures. If you were to let her get pregnant now it could be very harmfull and possibly deadly at her age!

Six months is too young to start breeding your female. Let her at least get over her puppyhood.

that is because she is not in season yet but it is near . please do not breed her till she is at least a 1year and a half to two years old.
