Nice! Yeah, it's such a common misconception that you shouldn't play tug with your dog... Thanks for making htis video!

[malibudogtraining]

@mahakhalil1 No worries. I hope you've found some of my other videos informative.

[malibudogtraining]

@DahLittleDude Yes, Wags is a very cool dog! He has more energy that 5 dogs!!!

[brownchildproduction]

WOW so many dogs. o.O They are all cute btw.

[malibudogtraining]

@brownchildproduction Thanks! I appreciate the cool comments.

In Soviet Russia dog trains you

[malibudogtraining]

@ironhead696 Well that would be interesting. I know a dog went into space before a human (Soviet).

how do i teach my dog to not run from home when we're outside and i spend a looooong time chasing him...help?

[malibudogtraining]

@loveismyweopon - I don't have enough video "yet" to help. check other sites; or better yet hire a local trainer

[mahakhalil1]

@loveismyweopon Put him on a leash, teach him stay, and make sure he gets enough exercise. You must build in him the understanding that under no circumstances is he to cross that threshold unless you say it's ok for him to do so. You can teach him that by teaching stay and making him sit and stay before he goes out for a walk until you say ok. Also, make sure that he LOVES being near you in general. Spend quality time with him.

[akulkis]

He's saying "Get away from the computer, or I'll drag you away from it."

[malibudogtraining]

@akulkis He's right! I spend too much time in front of the computer but I need to in order to put out the vids for people to enjoy. Thanks for your comments!

[bIabber]

yes i've figured it out.

wags : i needa new toy, mine keeps getting stuck in the chair

lol

[malibudogtraining]

@bIabber Isn't he funny? He learned that all by himself. Thanks for the comment.

[RaychelLouisex]

so i pressed the arrow downwards to see the comments and the video stopped and snakes came up on the video :L

[Siribhun]

I clicked LIKE =)

My dog likes to play fetch a lot and won't play tug so she'd only play with human and would ignore other dogs but she even runs away in fear when other dogs invited her for a game of chase or tug. What do I do?

[malibudogtraining]

@Siribhun You might want to contact a local dog-friendly dog trainer -or - if you know how to train, the use of clicker training is really for fear or phobia issues.

[Newoangel]

I have a papillion and he's afraid of the tug toy... >.<

[malibudogtraining]

Appreciate all the comments, video and Facebook LIKES

[niallshow]

my dog is a chow/Golden retriever and when i play tug o war with him he stays the same

[malibudogtraining]

@niallshow - Tug is an energy burner; one of several things to teach your dog to help them be better behaved.

[malibudogtraining]

FantasticFace- I get this question a lot. If you visit my blog page you'll see my blog on the proper way to play tug with your dog. There are rules to the game for best results.

[FantasticFace]

i was told when I took a dog training course not to play tug with my dog because then whenever u try to take anything away from him he will think its a game and for fun

[stevenhopkinsboy93]

this didn't teach me anything?!

[malibudogtraining]

@stevenhopkinsboy93 - actually it did, it taught you nothing, and that's something.

[Kiwiboi27]

@malibudogtraining confucious say? lol

[zakor33]

playing and socializing with your dog is natural. i have Rottweiler's and their temperament is like that of a Labrador :)

[malibudogtraining]

@zakor33 Rotties are very cute and playful. My next job is to train two Rotti puppies that are sisters. I'll have my hands full with them.

Thanks for the comment!

[GladysLenisx3]

he is a CUTE DOG I LOVE HIM GIVE ME HIM

[DreamingOfSecrets]

[malibudogtraining]

@DreamingOfSecrets  Yes, quite a few did. He's very smart isn't he? Thanks for the like and watch for some new videos I am working on.

[terrencelinkz]

can i know the name of the music you used in this video?

[malibudogtraining]

@terrencelinkz - sure, it comes with the editing software I use. (Pinnacle Studio, Scorefitter) it's called Caribbean Holiday, version: "Sand Frolics"

When I lived with my parents we had a dog named Dusty. He loved that game too. My mom read in one of the dog books that you can play that game with him. However you have to win the game all the time, to show who is boss. If you can't win then don't play it.

[malibudogtraining]

@NoviaScotiaIsCool - Out of 500 views, Thanks for being my first comment, Yahoo! The book your Mom read is now very outdated. I let the dogs "win" probably as much as I ask them to let the toy go.. Visit my blog where I explain all about the game.
