We do a modified grappling drill where kitty attempts to pass hand-guard and gain elbow-biting access. Of course, my mutant cat has 6 extra toes, sleeps in the sink, and fetches almost anything you can throw, so I dunno about other cats.

Our mastiff follows my wife around the house from room to room. If we are walking the dogs and we stop to talk to someone the mastiff instinctively will stand between my wife and the person she is talking to. They are great dogs.

Mines is a corgi that loves to > play, I wanna find a way for his playfulness to help my training. Corgi? Those little dogs the Queen Of England keeps? I wrestled twice with a Great Dane cross. Weighs abt 140 lbs. Just working flow. Take back mount, dog tries to bite, jump into 3/4 mount, gently sweep out the "arms" ala against turtle, take mount. Dog struggles, let dog up. Go to guard, work sweeps, triangles (dogs bite, so be sure you...urm..."protect the boys". Pretty easy really - hook one arm under their collar and push their jaw upwards with balde of hand). Afterwards, be sure to pat the dog and give it some food. * (*tries to avoid the "still respect you in the morning" joke) >(Posthumandude) > >Who here practices grappling with their dog?

Reminds me of a time I was in a teacher's backyard. We were practicing some kicks (warming up) and my teacher's gigantic Great Dane charged in front of me. I kicked that dog SO hard in the ribs... As I started to retract my kick in worry - I saw Horse's (the dog) reaction - he was happy and wanted to play more. Fuggin scarey. He probably didn't even think I was playing rough.

Cats particularly - they have no sense of humour about >play-fighting. > Hustlin' with a game pooch can be hours of exhausting fun for both of you. I grapple with my 100lb Golden. We both play fight all the time even though my wife yells at us to stop rough housing. It's a natural thing for dogs to do and it's play for them. We'll both grapple, play bite etc. Then usually we'll lay on the floor and snooze while the wife watches Dr. Phil afterwards.

Dogs (like many animals) see play as a form of predator behaviour. Cats particularly - they have no sense of humour about play-fighting. Hustlin' with a game pooch can be hours of exhausting fun for both of you. "Posthumandude" <posthumandude@aol.comremove> wrote > Who here practices grappling with their dog? Mines is a corgi that loves to > play, I wanna find a way for his playfulness to help my training. great fun; good training. I set rules for myself so the dog has a chance; they don't like joint locks much and I'm worried to hurt them, No fist blows; light slaps and pushes- nothing they don't like. If I press, and they get scared, I back off till it's fun for them again.
