there is absolutly nothing wrong with playing tug of war it does not teach dominance it builds confidance and drive you let the puppy win if you were to beat your puppy all the time it would bust his spirit..play tug and have fun both you and the puppy you start the game and you end the game when your done. your dog does not decide this and always let the puppy win
