I'm curious to see some answers to this one. I've read from the beginning (well, my beginning lol) around here that you shouldn't let them play tug. I know I read that because it stayed with me. Maybe it was just someone's opinion but being my first day or two with a Yorkie, it stuck in my head..? Anyone?
I thought that the reasoning for this is that they are terriers and this might bring out more of that terrier/fight attitude, but again..I am curious if I am even remembering right.
I actually do let my 2 play tug but only because the one that growls (play growls) is Shelby and not Mandie. Sometimes though...I think I can see it escalating and I make them "cool it."
