Even the gals. Are you kidding? I do it regularly!

Broke my glasses in two. I am completely fine with the simple jumping up command- scraches on the chest are enough injury for me. Dental work is expensive!

I used the garage and would hide the ball under stuff and in stuff and they would bark and dig at it and I would wait until they were almost totaly berserk and I would payoff. I went as far as putting the toys in ammo cans and up on shelves and taught them to "look up" on their searches so climbing up on the walls is not a problem for them. The problem I created was they don't make any distinction between the garage or kitchen or the bedroom or the living room......
