For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️💕
I needed that I rescued my amstaffy may of last year.I am healing my trauma as I uncover more of hers.Were both exhausted but we’ve finally hit our stride.❤LOVE is work.and I love her more everyday.Shes making me a better person.
For anyone who's new to using fabric tug toys: Please clean them often! If you won't there will accumulate a lot of sand in the toy which creates an abrasive surface for your dog's teeth.
Happy to see Arrow is developing more confidence and blooming! An important use of toys for dogs who can't stop carrying sticks or stones on walks - find a nice rubber ball or similar, gentle for the teeth, and let him carry this instead. The theeth of such dogs get extremely worn down, and a non abrasive alternative will help prevent this. All the best for you!
can you make a video with all the types of collars and leashes and how to use them? I have watched your video about the prong collar, but there are so many types
Thank you for talking about ball size toys, our Prince chocked on his ball to death he was a cross collie with a bigger mouth than most collies but wish we had got him bigger balls and also on a rope it, he would probably be here still then 😢
it does take trial and error which can get a bit expensive. I had one dog, that even though I had two identical balls, he had a favorite. He would drop one and always go get his preferred ball, I couldn't tell them apart.
So people shouldn’t have a basket of toys for their puppy/dog to go play with when they want to? Something to occupy them when you are doing chores or at work?
any time I've been dinged by a tooth was because of how I held or moved the toy. If I was too erratic or flinched, my dog could bit target the toy properly and got my fingers, I think the next video should be how to play with the toys. It does take developing some zen
@@car2nerr No worries, I believe we have all been snagged by our dogs teeth. I have a 6 year old GSD that went for the tug toy and bumped my finger with her tooth. It really hurt, and broke the skin. I will probably have a lot more because I have two more puppies to train.
I take off the black thing that covers the stitched area above the ball, then wrap that area in electrical tape. Once the tape rips, I replace it. It lasts longer, but it's definitely no where near as durable as the BolderK9 balls.
Same, as my dog. Don't expect too much. 30 seconds first time. Two day gap then try for one minute and so on. Quit while your ahead go super slow and bring cheese and chicken. Every time they make contact with tug say yes and give food. It takes time but you can do it with most dogs.

Good to know about the danger of toy balls, thanks for going over what could happen.
Great video! my cavalier loves small plush toys but he's ADDICTED to anything tied to a flirt pole!
What a great use for the pole 😅 I am using the carpet rack in the garden

A ball with air holes might also be safer too x
That small gappay ball is my dog’s favorite! And puller rings are awesome for tug and fetch.
the squeeker woke my dog up, i think ill take this information seriously 😅
Informative ! Thanks !

So far my pup's favourite game is to have us both hold a tug toy but he just wants to follow me around while he holds it lol.
That's our GSD's favorite game to play with our granddaughters
My English Bulldog loves to chew and isn't interested in fetch. I need to figure out how to get him to learn tug

It is possible the dog attack his owner when they are playing tug?
Most likely not an attack but an accidental bite.

sorry, I couldn't fix the typos. My dog would miss the target on the toy and got my fingers

Car, you didn't undestood, my dog can attack me when we are playing, if the dog feels superior can it leave the toy and open agresdion to the handler?
My dog uses a ball as a chew toy , oops! 😬
I bought an expensive chew toy that he does NOT like, so now I'm stuck trying to sell it.
Maybe donate it to the animal shelter.
The mcrs magnet ball ripped like 3 days after buying it 😂🤦♂️
I take off the black thing that covers the stitched area above the ball, then wrap that area in electrical tape. Once the tape rips, I replace it. It lasts longer, but it's definitely no where near as durable as the BolderK9 balls.
My GSD only plays few minutes no matter what kind of toys. Then no interest to play again. 😩

@@c1gar Thanks for your suggestion.
I hear ya! My GSD is the same.
