FIND IT!
Playing this game with our dog we will help him to "use his nose", it will provide mental stimulation, training commands and will make him happy for the treats and praises he will receive!
1. Ask your dog to sit and stay
2. Show him a treat
3. Move away from him and hide the treat - if it's the first time show him where are you "hiding" the treat
4. Ask him "find it" and praise him!
It is important to start slowly with easy steps or you will just confuse him.
The first times the dog should see where you are hiding...

Games to play with your dog: HIDE AND SEEK
Another way to play and train your dog!
It's a very nice game and it is a great mental exercise!
I've seen that Jago not only needs to release his energies, but also to feel engaged in something more "mental".
And Hide and seek it's also good fun!!
Your dog should already know the command "stay".
1. Show a treat to your dog or his favorite toy
2. Ask him to "stay".
3. Go to another room and hide somewhere.
4. Call your dog and wait until he finds you!
5. When he finally finds you praise him a lot and give him the treat / toy.

When I decided to adopt a dog my main concern was: I don't want him to be aggressive!
For this reason until few weeks ago I never played "Tug O'War" with him.
I was sure it was a game that would teach him to be aggressive, to show aggressive behavior.
Then I started reading...

We all know that playing with our dog is very important.
It’s important to keep them busy, active, entertained, to avoid boredom and to build a good relationship with the owner.
It’s important to set rules and to use the play time also for training.. but.. don’t forget to HAVE FUN!
Jago is very active.. I would say hyperactive.. he is never tired to...
