Why trust us?
I kindly challenge anyone with a vagina who doesn't like doggy-style sex to seriously reconsider. I get that it's not the most intimate of positions—you're facing away from your partner, after all—and it's not exactly relaxing (your arms get tired, and your knees can take a reaaal beating). But when done correctly, doggy style is incredibly satisfying.
"You can get the deepest penetration possible in this position, and you can also reach the G-spot," says Ava Cadell, PhD, author of Neuroloveology . On top of that, your partner gets a *very* nice look at your butt, and you work HARD for that booty . Why not remind them how lucky they are?
Plus, for some folks, being on all fours and entered from behind—the most basic definition of doggy, which obviously comes from the way dogs themselves mate—can actually be mentally stimulating, too. On one hand, the lack of pressure of staring into your partner's eyes can make it easier to orgasm , says Nan Wise, PhD, a licensed psychotherapist and certified sex therapist, and author of Why Good Sex Matters . On the other, you might enjoy feeling dominated by your partner—it's a gentle foray into kinky or BDSM sex.
If you’re still not sold on doggy style, let me tell you this: There are specific things you can do to make it hotter than any other sex position out there. But before I get into those, let's start with the basics...
Classic doggy involves one partner getting on all fours, while the other partner is on their knees, entering the first person from behind with their penis or strap-on, says Wise.
Other sexy variations include bending over the bed while your partner enters you from behind (more on that below), as well as several changes to leg and arm positions to switch things up. Since you are indeed not a dog, you have lots of power over how this position goes down—so get ready to have some fun, with these tips:
If you've tried doggy-style sex in the past and found it either uncomfortable or painful—something you don't typically find with other types of positions—it's likely because your body hasn't prepared itself for it. As Cadell notes, doggy is a deep and thus intense position, especially if your partner is well-endowed, so you might need a little more time getting excited.
To prime yourself (read: self-lubricate), spend time (at least 10 to 20 minutes, ideally) making out, touching various erogenous zones, and whispering sexy things (ya know, dirty talk). You need to do one F word ( foreplay ) before you can comfortably do the other (f*ck), so make sure you both build time in for that.
The OG doggy-style setup—kneeling on all fours—can feel great for a while, but eventually, your knees start to feel it. "A lot of women complain that they get sore knees, or that it hurts their back or their neck," Cadell says. Fix that by getting on your feet. Stand up and lean forward slightly against a wall, or bend over onto a table or a desk.
Sick of being on your hands and knees? I got you. Try lying flat on your stomach, with or without a pillow under your pelvis (but definitely one under your face, for comfort). Like so:
The snug fit will make your partner feel even bigger inside you...AND you get to be lazy.
The best part about doggy style is that it doesn’t even require a bed. Try it in the shower , standing on a staircase while holding onto the banister, or leaning over the kitchen counter. You could even bust it out in the car , if your backseat is big enough.
"My favorite is bending over a dryer that's on the spin cycle, so it's like a giant vibrator," says Cadell. Ooh...fun.
Lube does to sex what honey mustard does to turkey sandwiches, makes 'em way wetter and better. (Don’t @ me, plain sandwiches are dry AF.)
"Few bodies create enough natural lubrication to keep penetration pleasurable for the duration of intercourse," says Goody Howard , a Texas-based sex educator. Adding a squirt or three of store-bought lube can help increase pleasure. Friction, chafing, and pain begone!
Traditional doggy doesn't guarantee an orgasm, sadly enough. To up your chances of the big O, get into your classic doggy-style position with you on all fours, then put a wedge pillow (or a few firm pillows) under your belly in order to increase external pressure on the abdomen and pelvis—this ups the ante on the sensations you get during sex.
Lastly, keeping your hips raised, rest your head and arms on the bed. "[It's] almost like a child’s pose," Wise adds. (Think of it kinda like Leap Frog position , but with the added OMG of pillow pressure.)
Arms or legs get tuckered out in doggy? Sameee . Unfortunately, as Howard puts it, "it’s going to be tough to experience pleasure if your muscles are in pain and tired." Makes sense.
Welp, that’s where the sex chaise comes in. Basically, a sofa designed for getting freaky, a sex chaise (like the Liberator Esse Chaise ) is made of sturdy, supportive foam that holds your body up for you. Less time thinking about how pooped your arms are, more time moaning? Here for it.
Arch your back (not to the point of pain, please), as if you're moving into the cow pose of cat-cow in yoga. Not only will you improve the angle of penetration, helping your partner better hit your G-spot , but you'll also give them a better view.
If you like breast stimulation, doggy is the perfect position, says Cadell. Grab your partner's hands and place them on your breasts. Then, by keeping your hands over theirs, you can show them exactly the way you want to be touched—think of it as a naughty show-and-tell.
Prefer constant pressure to your nips? Wish there was some way a partner could finagle nibbling your nipples from behind? Give nipple clamps a whirl, suggests Howard.
Plop a pair on (gently, of course) mid-play, then as you’re nearing O, ease them off. The swoosh of your blood rushing back into your nipple could be just the thing to bring you home.
Position yourself in front of a mirror so you and your partner can sneak a peek at each other from another angle, says Sadie Allison, PhD, author of The Mystery of the Undercover Clitoris . And don't be surprised if it inspires you to put on a show. Toss your hair, arch your back a little more, and catch your partner's eyes for a sultry look. Hot.
Doggy style makes pulling out super easy, but you may want to rethink that contraception method...
Don’t worry, "nothing fancy" is required, says Wise. But do go ahead and grab a yoga strap before heading to the bedroom. (I know...huh?) "They are probably the easiest, most accessible, and most ubiquitous bedroom prop," Wise says.
Just wrap the strap around your waist for that feels-so-good pelvic pressure you get with pillows, and then let your partner pull on it while they enter you from behind. (Don't have one? Use a long silk tie or something similar.) The bonus is that they'll also get a bit more leverage for thrusting—and there's nothing like adding a little pseudo bondage to the mix.
Use your fingers to stimulate your clitoris as your partner thrusts, for a doubly powerful, blended climax. This is, by far, one of the primo ways to increase your chances of orgasm during doggy, says Allison.
This is sound advice for literally any sex position. But unlike, say, the missionary sex position where you have to pick an itty bitty vibe that’ll fit between your bodies, in doggy style you don’t. "Take advantage of the position and use a bigger vibrator, like a wand vibe, on yourself," suggests Howard.
With wands, not only can you easily stimulate your clit, but because wand-vibrators are so damn rumbly (as opposed to bullet vibrators, which are usually more Razor-phone-on-vibrate buzzy), "the person doing the penetrating can feel that vibration on their penis or dildo while inside you."
Howard especially recommends a wand vibrator with an angled head like the Sweet Vibes Charmed , Lelo Smart Wand , or Lulu 8 Wand . "The L-shape allows folks with limited mobility and range of motion issues to reach their bits even more easily," she says.
If your partner’s into the idea, that is.
Generally speaking, cock rings lock blood in a penis, helping your partner stay harder, longer. Vibrating cock rings simply plop a buzzy vibe on top of the ring, which you can position either up or down. (ICYWW: Yes, vibrating cock rings work on dildos, too!)
"Face the vibrating portion down so that it’ll stimulate your partner's scrotum (if they have one) and your clit," suggests Howard. "This will basically turn your partner into a vibrator because with every thrust you get teased." Fun!
Rugburn on your knees isn’t exactly enjoyable, and neither is slipping on satin sheets when you're ~trying~ to be sexy. Consider adding a plush pillow under your knees if you're doing doggy on the floor (this is a great go-to for quiet sex), position yourself close enough to a headboard or other surface to have something to grasp as your partner thrusts, or bunch up a couple of throw blankets under your hands and knees to create a little slip-proof friction.
If you’re into it, this is the easiest position to switch from vaginal sex to anal, says Cadell, since your butt is (obviously) right there. Just make sure to switch the condom to avoid infection , and if it's your first time, be sure to use plenty of lube and go slow .
Speaking of anal play... You can also keep going for vaginal penetration and spice things waaay up with a toy designed to go in and stay in the backdoor: the butt plug .
"A butt plug is going to press into the vaginal canal, which can make some of the internal hot-spots like the G-spot and A-spot more likely to get hit with every stroke," says Howard.
While she recommends wearing a basic (read: non-vibrating, small) plug the first time you try it during intercourse, the second (or, ya know, hundredth) time, you might upgrade to a remote-controlled butt plug like the b-Vibe Rimming Plug . "Having your partner control the vibrations from a remote while you have sex really ramps up the intimacy," she says.
Butt plugs go in and stay put, creating pleasurable pressure. But it actually isn’t the anal canal that’s dense with nerve-endings—it’s the anal opening . "After the initial push-in, butt plugs don’t actually stimulate those nerves unless they vibrate," says Howard.
Anal beads, however, which are designed to be inserted and removed over and over, do, she says. Woot!
"Doggy style puts the receiver in an awesome position for the penetrator to insert and remove the string during sex," she says. (With the help of lube, of course).
Quick recap: Butt plugs are beginner-level anal play and anal beads are intermediate. Advanced is double-penetration with a penis and dildo, or two dildos.
Intrigued? With the help of a harness like the SpareParts Deuce Harness , your partner can penetrate your front and back hole at the exact (!) same (!) time (!).
"The sensation pressure and the fullness of double penetration can feel amazing," says Howard. Plus, as with the butt plug, because the anal canal is full, "the vaginal hot-spots are more likely to be presented and stimulated so orgasm may be easier."
But, before you or your partner goes all in (literally), be sure to use A LOT of lube and have a safe word. Howard recommends using the green, yellow, and red system to check in with each other on comfortability — when you need to slow down or pause, simply say "yellow."
What makes good sex great sex is as simple as one word: enthusiasm. You don’t have to hold sustained eye contact with your partner, but do throw a few sexy glances their way from time to time, especially when whatever they're doing feels amazing.

To perform Doggy Style with your man, you need to get down on your hands and knees with your legs spread apart. Then your guy gets down on his knees and enters you from behind.

When you are in the Doggy Style position, you don’t have to do much other than stay in position. If you want harder penetration, then you can push back onto your man with each stroke. Or you can use one hand to masturbate during it . You can change the angle he is penetrating you at by arching your back either downwards or upwards, along with moving your upper body either up or down.
Your man will be thrusting in and out when you are in the Doggystyle position. But there are a bunch of simple things that he can do to change it up and add some very exciting variation in.

Along with the advice above, there are some other great things you can do to add some extra pleasure to Doggy Style.
Pushing Back – Just because your man is in the dominant position doesn’t mean that you have to be entirely passive. You can push back on your man for more explosive sex.
Pillow Under Hips – Another trick that your man can use is putting a soft pillow under your hips and grabbing either side of it. This way he can pull you into him with a lot of force without having to grab your sides and potentially hurt you.
Hands Tied – If BDSM and getting dominated by your man is what you are after, then get him to tie your hands behind your back beforehand, so he is in total control. Just remember that having a safeword is paramount for this.
Hand on Head – Another way your man can exert his control over you is to grab your hair and push your head down. This is not everyone’s cup of tea, but if you like feeling your man dominate you, then you’ll enjoy this.
Getting Tired? – If you find that your arms are getting tired from being in this position, then try doing it on the floor beside a bed or a sofa so that you can rest your head, shoulders and upper body on it and take the weight off your hands.
It’s Hot, But Not Intimate – While Doggy Style is a super hot sex position, it’s not particularly intimate. If you’re looking for something more intimate, then check out the Drill position or Spooning .
