I decided to write this post in order to influence people and the way they perceive playing/training with dogs. I don’t intend to copy other people’s articles or news available on the Internet or in books. My intention is to reach at least my acquaintances and convincing them that strength and endurance dog training is aimed at neither tormenting not pointless provoking of aggression in dogs.

A dog hanging on a tug which is mounted on the tree may not be a common sight, however, we also do not often see wrestlers training on various gym equipment in the street. Recently during one of such trainings I heard an elderly lady’s comment, ”Don’t you have brains? You’re hurting them!” The lady who said so was holding a quite big dog in her arms herself.

Why is it worth to train high jump?

It’s good for strengthening dog’s neck and grip, developing muscles and help dogs release the excess energy. I think these are very good reasons, however, one of the most important ones for me personally is the fact that during such trainings we may help dogs develop and create an even stronger bond with them.

To sum up, whenever you see a dog in such circumstances, do not immediately judge people who put in a lot of effort and time to help their dogs develop.
