Do you want to have earth-shattering pleasures when having sex in a doggy-style position? Here are the four best ways how to make doggy-style sex even better.

It is not surprising that the doggy sex style is considered a classic and sensational sex position. It is a common style, and many people are familiar with it. Doggy sex style is a type of rear penetration where the submissive partner lays on their hands and knees and faces away from the dominant partner. When having sex in this position, there is deeper vaginal penetration that helps stimulate the G-spot easily. It is also the best position for deep anal penetration leading to a higher possibility of achieving anal orgasm. Performing this sex position has much do with the hip movement; thus, it is a good sex position if the penetrating partner experiences back pains.

How Do You Get into Doggy Style?

Follow the doggy-style sex position how-to and tips below for a more pleasurable play.

The submissive should get in a table-top position while resting on their knees and hands. The penetrating (dominant) partner should kneel behind the submissive partner. You can let your knees rest on either side or between the sub's legs.

After positioning yourselves, let the penetrating partner hold on to the sub's hips, then penetrate in the anus or vagina using the penis or sex toy.

This sex style is perfect if you want deep penetration. Some people find the deep penetrations more pleasurable since the cervix, also called the A-spot, is stimulated.

For vaginal penetration, the G-spot is reached easily in this style because of the deep penetration. The sex toy or penis is curved downward, thus rubbing directly on the vaginal walls, specifically where the G-spot lies. Also, the P-spot is easily reached if you have anal penetration through doggy style.

In doggy style, the submissive partner has little control over the moves made. If you like to play the submissive role, the doggy-style sex position is ideal for you.

4 Tips to Make Doggy Style Amazing

Try the following doggy-style sex tips to elevate your anal and vaginal pleasure.

For vaginal penetration, the submissive partner should pile several puffy pillows between their limbs and press a vibrator over their clitoris. This boosts orgasmic sensations, and the partner is likely to climax faster. A research study carried out in 2018 revealed that about 37% of ladies require clitoral pleasure to orgasm. Also, about 36% of ladies claim that clitoral stimulations heighten orgasmic sensation.

If you are the submissive partner, bring your knees close together rather than widening them apart. This makes both anal and vaginal cavities narrower. A narrow vaginal or anal cavity offers a strong squeeze against the penis or the sex toy, thus exerting more pressure on the walls for maximum sensation.

If you are in the receiving position, lower your height to provide a better angle for penetration. You can rest on your elbows instead of palms so that the penis or sex toy can hit the walls perfectly.

The dominant partner should perform other erotic tasks against the sub's buttocks. For example, they can spank, kiss or stroke the buttocks using their hands or a spanking whip. However, before spanking, communicate with the sub to get their consent.

Variations Of Doggy Style

If you have only played the standard doggy style, try the following variations and note the benefits.

Flat Doggy Style

In this style, the penetrating partner stays at a kneeling position as in classic doggy style. The submissive partner positions themselves in a table-top position then lowers the chest and head down to lie flat. The sub should position their head on the sides to make it more comfortable. The position works perfectly for anal penetration and helps in the P-spot easily.

Side Doggy Style

In this position, both dominant and sub-partners lie on their sides while facing the same direction. The position resembles the spooning position with only a slight difference. If the submissive partner needs more control over the game, they can leverage and thrust in a back-and-forth momentum.

Standing Doggy Position

This position resembles the normal doggy style, but the sub partner stands while slightly bending over a raised surface. In this position, the sub's buttocks are slightly raised than in the regular doggy style. The penetrating partner then stands at the sub's back while holding their hands or hugging them from that position. The position allows the penetrating partner to move fast because they are not on their knees. Also, it is perfect for partners with sensitive knees.

Try Different Motions

This is a doggy-style sex tip that most people don't practice. Doggy style is not only about pounding and thrusting. You can also try movements such as bouncing, popping, swinging, and rolling the hips. Also, the submissive may take control of the play when the penetrating partner gets tired. Since you cannot see each other's faces during doggy style, you are advised to install a mirror in your bedroom, thus creating intimacy.

The Bottom Line

Doggy style is a fun position for most people. There are many ways to perfect the style. You can adjust to the position that works well for you and your partner. The most crucial thing about doggy style is for both partners to be on the same page. Talk to your partner before the play to familiarize yourself and establish boundaries. Experimenting before the actual play also makes you aware of the setbacks and how to fix them. This blog has some tips on making doggy-style sex even better.
