jeremy funk Webboard User Reg: 09-18-2002 Posts: 27 Loc: Offline	I have a young malinois(4-5mos) that seems to have outgrown the gunny sack that I train her with.(she has shredded it and several others before that) I want to take her to the next level with either a puppy tug or a sleeve. Could anyone recommend which one I should use to start with and what a good method for using it would be? Also, how do I know when it is time to start using a helper in her bite work? She is becoming very rough with me but I still think she is just playing.

Go to the Equipment Section and look for the Tugs and Prey Items. I found the video Bite Training Puppies very helpful. If you can't be a Good Example,then You'll just have to Serve as a Horrible Warning. Catherine Aird.

I do however still use the tug on the tie out and for reward fights etc. etc. My dog just turned 1 yesterday and for his B-day I pulled out the trial sleeve, and checked out how that worked. Not bad.. full bite and he enjoyed killing it. Leute mögen Hunde, aber Leute LIEBEN ausgebildete Hunde!
