Ever wondered why golden guardians and experts can't stop raving about playing tug? Well, buckle up, because we're about to unveil the top-notch reasons why indulging in this playful activity with your furry friend can be a game-changer. 🐕✨
🌟 Unleash the Instincts: Have you noticed your dog's natural tendency to grab and pull? It's more than a random quirk; it's part of their inherent prey drive. Instead of suppressing these natural instincts, let's channel them into a controlled tug session. By engaging in this interactive game, you're offering a safe outlet for your pup's natural urges, steering them away from chewing on shoe laces or furniture.
🧡 Forge Unbreakable Bonds: A stronger bond is hands down one of the most quoted benefits of introducing tug games. But why is that? When you engage in a tug of war with your dog, you're not just playing a game. The undivided attention and shared excitement forge a connection that's deeper than the Grand Canyon. It's a wonderful way to understand each other's quirks and preferences, amplifying the magic of your relationship.
🏆 Skill Building in Style: Once your pup falls head over paws for tug play (which might take a bit of time, but is so worth the investment), you've got yourself a secret weapon for training. Tug becomes a high-stakes reward that they'll eagerly work for during training sessions. We've witnessed countless success stories where dogs master essential cues like a bulletproof recall or essential life-skills and tricks with the help of their beloved tug toy. Plus, contrary to myths, playing tug doesn't turn dogs into chase-crazy beasts; it's a tool that can be harnessed for positive results.
🌐 Dispelling the Myths: Now, before you dive into the world of tug, let's address a few misconceptions. There are some who believe tug can trigger aggression or other undesirable behaviour. But the truth is, tug play is a fantastic way to harness your dog's natural instincts for good.
Have you given tug a whirl with your pup? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments below. Let's celebrate the joy and bonding power of tug play! 🎉🐾
Give a very big welcome to the four beautiful pups joining Puppy School Wakefield tomorrow 🥰 Dotty, Reggie, Reggie and Maudie 🐶🎓
Check out Maggie & Lottie the lovely labradors with their certificates for ‘most impressive recall’ 🐶 Maggie’s owners sent in video footage of her recalling from a distance where you could not even identify her! And Lottie’s owners sent in footage of Lottie doing such a quick response to her cue which they had worked so hard on, well done girls 🥰🐶🎓
A lovely review from Lottie’s owners 🐶 Lottie completed and graduated from our Puppy Course and follow on Superpup Course and did a fab job! Her owners worked hard on regaining her attention when distracted which then fed into strengthening all her other behaviours. Lottie was always so pleased to be in class and I am missing her snuggles! 🥰 Well done Lottie & owners & thankyou for your review. Our next Puppy Course starts 19th Augusts - book now using the link in bio 🎓
Here is a review for our follow on Superpup course from Skye’s owners ⭐️ Skye brought her boss babe personality to every class from start to finish brightening everyone’s day! Her owners & big brother love her quirky personality and did a fab job applying their new skills to Skye’s training and she loved it! We miss Skye very much too 🥰 Our next Puppy Course for pups under 20 weeks of age at course start date starts 19th August in a 10am class, link in bio to book or bob us a message with your enquiry 🐶

Check out our most recent graduates doing their side by side recalls 🤩 We had a few shy pups in class so added in extra measures to make sure all the pups were comfortable - it is always important to arrange the environment to set them up for success! Well done Reggie, Cooper, Buddy & Ozzy 🐶🎓
Check out the lovely Cooper, one of our pups on our current Puppy Course 🥰 He is such a smart boy and loves putting his mind to things, so having lots of cool cues to use out and about helps him focus on his owners/handlers. Here he is perfecting ‘spin’, well done Cooper 🐾
TRICK TIME 🪄 Here are our four pups showing the tricks their owners taught them at home before graduating from our last course. Check out: Willow with crawl, Madeley with through, Tilly with paw & Lady with spin 🐶🎓
Here are our side by side recalls from the most recent puppy course! Check out Lady & Madeley, and Willow & Tilly 🐾🐾🥰

Look at Luna, Skye, Martha and her big brother showing us some wonderful puppy play at a meet up following their Puppy School and Superpup graduations 🥰 Such lovely interactions here and the pups are all also switching off from each other and interacting with the environment. Well done hoomans on some excellent social management in play which has led to this lovely result 🐶😍 Our next Puppy Course starts Saturday 3rd June at 10am - see posts for more info 🎓
It’s Trick Time 🪄 Check out our recent graduates and all the tricks they showed in class at graduation… we have: Nigel with paw & down, Luna with the cutest half rollover then paw & down, Poppy with a standing spin (a first for us!), Cooper with double paw & spin, Buster with double paw & high 5, Bella with double high 5 and Luna with weave (another 1st!) 🐶 Well done everyone, absolute superstar pups ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our side by side recalls at our Puppy Course graduation class last week 🐶🥰 It was a very busy class with lots of people and pups so they all did so well! Well done everyone ⭐️ Our next course starts 3rd June 🐶 Contact is for details or find the booking link in bio 🎓
Cooper showing us his lovely heel position in class at the weekend - we had to adapt our technique to stop his lead getting caught in his leggies 🐾 He did a fab job following the lure and learning that being at the side of a hooman is more reinforcing that being ahead of us, good job Cooper 🐶⭐️
TRICK TIME 🪄 Now I have figured out insta reels I can join the rest of the tricks together from the last puppy course 🐶 Check out: Flossy doing paw, Luna doing paw, Pepper doing spin-high5-wait, Luna doing paw&high5, and Skye doing high5 🐾 Well done everyone some great tricks 😍
HERE COME THE SUPERPUPS 🦸 Recall is one of the behaviours which can easily regress during adolescence, and all of these pups are in different stages of adolescence too so we need to adapt to the individual to better set them up for success. We worked hard on giving the recall cue once the dog had engaged with the handler or disengage from the distractions. Well done Madge, Martha, Lottie, Skye & Nellie 🐶🐾
LOTS OF RECALL INCOMING 🏃♀️🐕 I had an extra hand today to take some videos and got some great recall footage from the first and 2nd class. This is only week 2 and look at the fab recall from the pups! This week we worked on distance and then added in a distraction (toy play) to recall from. To help set them up for success we made sure we reduced the distance when adding the toy and kept the play short and sweet. Well done Cooper, Luna, Buster and Little Luna 🐶🐾
