So I used to play tug with Lacey when she was itty bitty, but recently she started to pull really hard, almost pulling me over sometimes so I would just let go whenever she started to pull. Now when I try and take a toy or item she has randomly picked up that she isn't allowed to have, she started growling and trying to play tug. How should I stop this? If she has something bad for her, I need to be able to get it off her ASAP. If I throw another toy for her, the dope runs over there with the thing still in her gob and trys to pick it up with it still in her mouth, she doesn't drop it.
And also I was just feeding her and dropping ham into her food and patting her and stuff, as a request from mum to get her used to being handled while eating, even though she probably won't ever be in a situation where someone else will be touching her while she is eating. I've managed to get her to be fine with someone handling her body and was working on her head. Well I was dropping ham into her kibble, I had my hand in front of her face and could pat her on top of her head, and she was fine, wagging her tail slowly when I was just gradually moving my hand around the side of her face when out of nowhere she barked and whipped her face to the side where my hand was, it was so fast I couldn't even tell if she snapped. As soon as I moved my hand away she was wagging again. What should I do? Seriously rattled my confidence, I could've easily been bitten like that little girl with the Lab.
