Well it appears I may have stifled my dogs desire to play tug which comes from previous baggage it seems. I come from the don't play tug with your dogs as it encourages aggression and heaven forbid if the dog won. Now to turn that way of thinking around on its head is something needed not only for my dog but myself as well. With this Module it has provided the tools necessary to rebuild that relationship with my dog. I'm afraid I will need to really step back to the tug on a leash approach, as when i show my dog the tug she's like oh no you don't....not going there. Thank you for enlightening me to this new technique to acquire drive in my dog(s).
