Pull Toys
Dr. Finn says that pull toys are never a good choice for a dog toy. There are three major problems associated with these toys. The first is that these toys may make dogs accidentally bite their owners as they play too seriously to pull the toy away from them. The second issue is that owners often give up pulling and let the dog have the toy. This teaches your dog to think that he can become dominant over you and may result in disobedience.
Lastly, pull toys can damage your dog’s teeth in rough play and present a choking hazard as your dog will likely chew the string or cord off the toy and swallow it.
