Odd question about toys... - Page 2

I'm just using a basic rope toy with a rubber center to clean the teeth. Lol..

I'd get something different but I can't find anything around here and I can't order off of the net.

Does she like the rubber? If so, we LOVE LOVE LOVE these balls. String is a great length so I can hang it around my neck to work on fuss and eye contact. It also works for tug, and helps for throwing it farther as a reward or for fetch. Nikon literally does backflips for these balls (really, b/c I say "roll over" but he gets SO excited he barks and leaps and basically does a flip instead).

I get them from Hallmark K9 and they are $8 (Nikon uses the medium size because he inhaled one of the small ones, got lodged in his throat for a sec)

Maze isn't really ball crazy. She likes the rope feeling I think. The rubber is for me so I don't get rope burn since I don't let her chew it. Lol.
I found a smaller rope toy that I'm gonna try next week.

You can use a clip on a makeshift necklace like this one http://leerburg.com/894.htm or you can get a vest. They make fancy dog training ones, but I just use an all purpose vest I got at Cabella's.

Interesting. I'll have to look in to that. Thanks.

Look for a fishing or hunting vest at a thrift store. They have a huge pocket in the back.

He so stole that idea from Bernhard Flinks! Wow poor guy!

Make a clip on necklace with a shoe string and a clothes pinn! Pic soon to follow. costs almost nothing and easy replaceable.

Yes he did, just like the "dominant dog collar".

After meeting and spending a week training with Bernhard, I have serious problem with that.

I had to share this, I had the HSG guys (They are the group that renovates the facilities on Base here in Germany) help me make this the other day I got 4 clips from clothes 2 hangers for 1 Euro . I used it last night worked great... I so could not spend 12.00 USD plus shipping on something this simple.
