14. Grab a vibrator for doggy style.

This is sound advice Sex tips for women 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 can “take advantage of the position and use a bigger vibrator, like a wand vibe,” says Howard.

Howard especially recommends a wand vibrator with an angled head, like the 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.

15. Pull out the vibrating cock ring.

If your partner enjoys wearing a vibrating cock ring during sex or is open to the idea of trying one, this can be a great way to amp up doggy style.

Generally speaking, cock rings lock blood in a penis, helping your partner stay harder, longer. A vibrating cock ring simply features a buzzy vibe on top of the ring, which you can position either up or down.

“Face the vibrating portion down so that it’ll stimulate your partner’s scrotum and your clit,” suggests Howard. “This will basically turn your partner into a vibrator because with every thrust you get teased.” Fun!

16. Be smart about surfaces.

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, 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.

17. Bring in butt play with doggy style.

Doggy style is the easiest position to switch from vaginal sex to anal sex, says Cadell, since your butt is right there.

18. Wear a 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 plug the first time you try it during intercourse, the second time, you might upgrade to a remote-controlled vibrating 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.

19. Use anal beads.

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.

20. Explore double penetration.

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.

“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.”

Ultimately, what takes any sex position from good to great to O-mazing is as simple as one word: enthusiasm. As long as you and your partner are excited about what you’re doing with doggy style, you’ll both end up howling with pleasure.
