Can you explain more in detail excatly when this happens? Does something seem to trigger the behavior?

I was just playing with her. The same way a small dog or puppy would. I was on my hands and knees "jumping" around lol. For about 10 min, even when I was done playing. She would come up to me and do it.

Yes she's spayed. So I should take it as a compliment that I made her really happy??

OO good, cus that means she's starting to come out of her shell!

good thing that she's spayed.

I have never had my girl dogs or other girl dogs do that to me..it's always the boy dogs..

..although it could be a dominance issue. when she does that to you just say "off" in a firm tone of voice and see if that helps. when she gets off give her a reward like a treat or just praise her for getting off.

Yes, humping definitely denotes dominance. When you're down at her level playing with her, she might be seeing that as an opportunity to dominate you with the humping.
