Rules of engagemnt are
1. you start it by saying take it. (toy)
2. Teeth come in contact with your hand ever. Game over. Dogs know where you start and they end. They should have a good bite control.
Sometimes they do make an oops just stop the game they will do better next time.
3. you end it. You ask for a drop it even if it is in trade for a treat and game is over till the next time.
Know they can ask you if you would like to play anytime but you start by the ok and stop with the give it to me or all done.

This is what I have learned to. It is also a good way to encourage those baby teeth to fall out.
