The Schweikert Puppy Cotton Tug with Loop Handle is a 60 cm x 7 cm puppy tug in a soft-padded cotton-synthetic material, with one handle at the end.
The softer cotton-synthetic outer is comfortable for teething puppies and dogs that are unsure about rougher jute, yet the material is very hard-wearing. The long body keeps your hand well away from the dog's mouth while you build grip and drive.
Features
- Material: cotton-synthetic
- Padding: soft
- Handle: one, at one end
- Size: 60 x 7 cm
- Suits: puppies and small to medium breeds
Use it for early grip work and drive building, as a reward in obedience, and for interactive play.
How trainers use it
Many trainers start puppies on a softer material before moving to jute. Hold the tug by its loop and move it low along the ground, so the puppy has a long target to chase and grab. Encourage the grip towards the far end, away from your hand. Keep sessions short, let the puppy win sometimes to build confidence, and end the game with a calm out. Putting the tug away afterwards keeps it special for training.
