[nagdu] Arbitrary restrictions on playing with future guide dogs

[Debby Phillips]

Hmm.  Well, I'm not sure I remember what ow wrote for this 
question.  Lol.  But Neena was a wonderful, sweet, loving dog, 
full of energy, all the
that.  I think maybe what I meant was that I'm lucky to have 
Nova.  Nova is a great guide, and a mellower dog.  She still gets 
into her own mischief, but she responds to me better.    Debby 
and Nova

 I used to play fetch with Spencer.  He would bring me the ball

 about three times and do what I asked.  Then he wouldn't bring

 anymore, so I played with him about one less than was his usual 
limit.  He
 seemed to enjoy it.

 Hi! Hadn't thought about a reward for them to play tug.  I 
actually don't
 have a tug toy now, (Neena destroyed the last one).  We'll get 
another one
 eventually.  I'd like to try playing tug with Nova.  She likes 
to fetch
 balls and brings them back for awhile, then she gets her bone 
and chews on
 it.  She loves to chew her bone.  She's actually not that much 
of a player.
 We took her to the free play area at school, and she just came 
over and
 laid
 down beside me, and even when her trainer interacted with her in 
play, she
 just wasn't that interested.  My third dog Nat was like that.  
All the
 others have enjoyed playing, some more than others.  But she's a 
cuddler
 and
 a chewer.  Maybe she
 would play with a tug toy.     Debby and Nova
