Tug of war or a game of tug can be a wonderful thing to teach our dogs. It can be used as exercise, as a replacement for fetch, to teach impulse control and as a reinforcer. This video explains how to teach a dog to play tug. It teaches how to get them to let go of the toy and how to take the toy when cued to do so. This dog training tutorial is loaded with positive reinforcement content. It is always a great idea to contact a behaviour professional to help you with your dog training program.
