www.drsophiayin.com presents two Jack Russell Terriers playing tug. These dogs both have a high arousal level so it's essential that they have an "on-off" switch. If their play becomes too aroused, then they could get into a fight. I don't generally let them play tug with eachother much because even the medium-level arousal causes them to be more competitive/aggressive around eachother and aroused during the day (more likely to bark at sounds coming from outside the house.. etc). To learn how to train this quick release visit the subscription-based online education center at www.drsophiayin.com in September 2009.
