I’ve recently (over the last several months) started working with Tucker using Natural Dog Training principles.  One of the key exercises that has actually helped my relationship (and his level of minding me) is to play tug with him and to ALWAYS let him win. This is contrary to many other training recommendations, but for us it has helped. It’s also helped in our play time, as well as teaching him to fetch and retrieve, although we call it “Where’s your tug?” and “Bring It!”.
