Robert has addressed it a couple of times. I do not recall if it was on lessons or AMAs. Perhaps someone will jump in. But I would search the lessons. The 2021 AMAs are also searchable.

This afternoon, just after I mentioned that I did not remember Robert’s advice on tugging… LOL

Good thing there was some nail behind it 🤪. This was the adult female. I hyped her up with 2 or 3 misses and she went a bit crazier. Totally my fault.

Did not hurt nearly as much as the puppy giving me a bloody lip for the 3rd time as he tried to engage me in play 😛

He is such a sweetheart. 15 weeks, and he went downstairs and opened the doggy door and did his business outside for the first time. I’m sure there will be mishaps, but he did daddy proud today.

Thinking of it, what she did was to anticipate that I was going to pull again in the same direction. Doh 🙄

Ellie have you watched all the tug videos? I’m pretty sure Robert has addressed your question.

Clicking on this extremely long link should filter out tug videos – https://robertcabral.com/all-lessons/?current_page=1&search=tug&type=all&order=desc&posts_per_page=12¤t_page=1&orderby=recent&filter-categories=all&filter-instructors=all&view=grid

All Lessons

You have to go back and watch the lesson again, I would think you would know better.

That is really great for 15 weeks.

Well it gets worse cuz we were only messing around and this is what I used as a tug 😂😂😂 … which usually she does well on 😜

Wrong picture this one with both hands LOL

Try cutting the strings of your toy.

Also, if you have a puppy/young dog, use a softer tug. Your dog could be sticking to the rope because it is easier to hold (and might indicate that the tug is too hard at the moment)

Thanks for all the help, I’ve rewatched the videos now 🙂
