| Who said I do bitework during teetheing?
I play tug....I play with the burlap bag....I take the puppy to the club and let him/her play.
If a puppy showed signs of pain while doing any of it.....I'd ignore it like it didn't happen and show more "animation" immediately (my actions) and let the prey drive take over.
You have to know the nerve strength of your puppy though. A soft or weak puppy might back off.
Others.....well you end up picking baby K9 teeth out of your tug object (to have dipped in gold and put on a really cool necklace :D)
