I am seeing the same with Maple and Capella.

Watching the two puppies reminds me of how physical dogs are, and how very much play needs to be part of their lives — and yes, dog play involves mouths.

Whether we are intentional about it or not, we are always training our dogs. Since I have specific goals for mine, their training needs to have intention and direction. And because I think their lives, including training, should be fun — as they define fun — mouths are involved. Tugging, fetching, eating, puzzle solving, chewing — all ways to involve a dog’s natural inclination to have fun with their mouths.

And that is why we just received a new supply of training tools…
