Day 1,255

Who doesn’t enjoy a good game of tug? Nico loves his Herm Sprenger Jute tug toy; it has handles on each end and a big soft padded area in the middle for him to bite down on. It has been the most durable tug toy we’ve ever had. The jute is woven and “heals” itself after it gets punctured by Nico’s teeth. We’ll combine tugging with obedience, using tug as a reward. It is a great way to burn off both physical and mental energy simultaneously.

Do you enjoy this photo series? If so, it would mean a lot to me if you consider supporting my work on Patreon. For as little as $2 per month, less than a cup of coffee, you can help keep this project alive. Patreon funds allow me to focus on this project and others that don’t provide any direct income. And it’s super important that Nico gets paid with plenty of treats and toys. I need to keep the talent happy!
