When playing tug, just don’t forget to follow this fundamental rule – the game stops if your dog’s teeth touch your skin.

And contrary to famous belief playing tug with your dog will not make him aggressive/wild, nor will letting him win make him invincible. Allowing your dog to win makes the game more engaging, and it reveals your dog that you are a lot of fun to be around them.

3. Play Frisbee

It is a game referred to as an enhanced game of fetch because it promotes your dog to chase over long distances!! 

A game of frisbee is a perfect exercise, and it’s a lot of fun for dogs that have a natural drive to chase.

Incase your dog is not aware of how to catch a frisbee, start out by using a soft disc. Traditional plastic frisbees are hard, so if they hit your dog in the face, they can discourage them from making an effort to grab it. Encourage them when they begin to follow it around and chase. Once your dog is curious to pursue it, you can increase the distance and start tossing it.
