the abandon gsd i adopt

will need lotsa bonding, thus the best way i reckon is to play with him
as he got good prey drive.

the only problem now is, he doesnt want to let go the tug toy or the ball

how can i train him to let go?

he will just continue to chew it when i bring him back into his kennel.

any advice?

:confused:

If the dog already knows the "Out" command, is it possible that you've negated it somehow? I'm no expert, but I do know with my own dogs that if I told them to release, and they didn't, then I had to make sure they understood the gamed ended immediately. Others would reinforce this bad habit, by pulling back while saying "drop it" and that confused my dog.

This is from a pet perspective, so please feel free to ignore my post if it goes against working theory. I used the 2 ball technique with this pup without issues.
