Does Playing Tug Cause Aggression? - Talking Dogs Radio Show

from Vermont Dog Trainer Show · host Ian Grant

In this episode, we tackle common myths about playing tug with your dog. Many people believe that tug makes dogs aggressive, but the truth is, when played with structure, it's a great way to build confidence and trust. Another myth is that you always have to win the game—when in reality, allowing your dog to "win" at times can make the game even more rewarding. We break down how to use tug as a powerful tool to strengthen your bond with your dog. Listener Question: A listener asks whether they should give their dog a joint supplement. We discuss signs that may indicate a need for joint support and what to look for in a quality supplement.   Courtesy 93.9 WLVB Join the Early Bird VIP Wait List for my Canines & Culture Program
