Tug of war makes your dogs mean!

[release the hounds]

Some play tug, some don't. Some have caused problems, some won't. Some drink pepsi, some coke. I don't think anybody here has all the answers.

I like to play tug and when people say it will make my dog a certain way, I just chuckle and move along. I live with my dogs and interact with them every day. I think I have a bit better idea of what i'm living with than anybody else does.

If somebody else notices their dog acting a certain way and think Tug isn't a good thing to do, so what. They probably know their dog better than I do.

Personally I think this thread has been generally very good. And I hope that anyone reading it, does think twice about any kind of training that they do, they go for help, research and most importantly understand that any method or game done incorrectly can have ramifications.
