“One of the dogs favorite games is tug of war. Hell walk up to you with one of his toys firmly clamped in his jaw, expecting you to grab the other end of the toy, and the game is on. Hell shake his head wildly without opening his jaw, firmly trying to get you to release your grip. Once you have let go, hell approach you again with the toy with the expectation for you to grab the other end of the toy. His jaws are quite strong and he never fails to win tug of war as he makes me release my grip.”
Wonderful. Do you realize you’re helping him train-up for the day he bites your arm or a child’s head?
Actually, i didnt train him to do that. He taught me. He just walked up to me with his toy in his jaw. I assumed he wanted to give it to me so i grabbed the toy. Only he didnt let go of his end. Instead, he began to shake his head vigorously while keeping his teeth clamped down on the toy. I couldnt hold on for long for fear of ruining the toy, so I let go. Second i did, he approached me again with the toy clamped in his jaw, expecting me to grab on again.
