Michele, you are not going to believe this, but he looks EXACTLY like our first dog. He was a lhaso apsos (not sure of spelling)---and in the same color. They could be twins! We named him Teddy because he looked just like a teddy bear!
I'm glad you have this to look forward to. He is precious---and I know you will enjoy him!

my son's dog, a male mix, has been neuteured and he still humps on everyone, including me when he's here visiting. What a confused dog!

If he turns into a troublesome teenager then maybe get him fixed but he might not be a problem anyway. Archie never got that bad (he was fixed at a year old) and we only got him fixed b/c he has an inherited disease so any pups of his would have had a high risk of getting the same thing and we didn't want to risk that (it was miserable enough for him).
And anyway, he still humps his cushion occasionally! That's another thing you can do, let them do what they want to their own bedding but not let them get away with ever doing it to anything else (eg people's legs). It's kept Archie happy and he never humps anything else so it's not a problem.
Oh yeah, that was what I was going to say....getting them fixed doesn't come with a guarantee of no naughty business anyway! My old dog got fixed young and he still humped anything and mounted bitches and went crazy after bitches in heat. So it's not a simple solution - it all comes down to your dog and how you train them whatever.

Ok, so I'm not sure how to ask this in a PC sort of way so I'm just going to ask-when you have the dog fixed and he still humps things, does he ejaculate I guess is the word??? Sorry, I don't mean to be crude but I've not had a dog before and I'm just not understanding. Are they fixed but still shoot blanks or does nothing come out when they hump??

Kenzie was fixed but has never humped anything. Sometimes he gets "excited" but nothing "happens." They say that fixed males never lift their legs to pee, but it ain't true. If there's something to lift his leg on, he'll do it; otherwise he'll squat.
Oh wait -- I stand corrected. He saw a female Westie that he REEEELY liked, and he humped her. Well, who'd blame him? She was SUCH a cutie, I'd have humper her myself! But as he was humping her, he looked at me and said, "Why am I doing this?" The female was totally bored and walked away, leaving him wondering what the hell had just happened.
He shot blanks, just blanks, and he hasn't done it since.

Just humping, no shooting.
On this subject, they now do it so it's an internal snip so he just has a sac just no balls in it.
