The Bassett Hound Sex Position

Fire Hydrant Sex PositionLazy Dog Position

The Bassett Hound sex position is a variation on regular Doggy Style, or the Leap Frog, depending on how you look at it. It's a fun choice if you enjoy leaning slightly submissive while your man takes charge.

To try the Bassett Hound with your man, get down on all fours — knees and hands on the bed. From there, lower yourself further toward the ground by spreading your knees and pushing your butt backward, which drops your waist down. Then settle onto your elbows, spreading them out to bring your chest closer to the bed. Your man enters from behind while on his knees, either spreading his own knees to get lower, or staying more upright and entering at an angle.

Decent flexibility helps here if you want to get your body low enough on the bed.

What You Do In The Bassett Hound Position

In the Bassett Hound, you're doing much the same as you would in Doggystyle — which is to say, not a whole lot. Push back against your man for harder penetration, or lower a hand to masturbate yourself. Learn the best clitoral stimulation methods.

What Your Guy Does In The Bassett Hound Position

Your man has plenty of room to work with in the Bassett Hound. He can drop his waist level with yours for straightforward in-and-out penetration, or keep his waist elevated with knees closer together to angle upward and stimulate your G-Spot more directly.

He can also grip your shoulders or waist and pull you toward him for deeper penetration, massage your back while thrusting, or reach around your waist to rub your clit.

Tips To Keep In Mind When Trying The Bassett Hound Position

Plenty of students have tried the Bassett Hound with their partners, experimenting with their own variations. Here's what tends to enhance the experience most:

• Anal sex works just as easily in the Bassett Hound as regular vaginal sex does. More great anal positions here.
• If you're having anal sex here, he can finger you at the same time as he penetrates you for extra pleasure.
• The Bassett Hound allows for genuinely deep penetration, so proceed carefully if your man is on the longer side.
• Try tucking a pillow or cushion right under your waist to help elevate it as you shift positions.

Sean's Take On The Bassett Hound Sex Position

I find the Bassett Hound makes a great transition from regular Doggy Style, and it can end up feeling even more pleasurable. The trick is getting your man to experiment with different knee positions to change up how he's penetrating you.
