Whats ur favourite game to play with ur doggy?

Am I the only one who play with my dog?

Some people say dogs only have to play with dogs but I always play with Macy, hide n seek, cowboys, football... And always have great fun

I thought itd be fun to share our favourite ways to play with our friends...

we play hide and seek ripping up a chew stick and hiding it in a room. Then theres tug of war (an old t shirt) then the training games.... sit wait lay down paw etc

I love pulling a blanketover my head and pretending to cry ,drives Cassie mental. Oh says one day she going bite me as I'm coming out lol

Thats really funny dave

I play with her every day, usually a game of chase with a bit of wrestling and tug of war.
I like hiding under the duvet and shouting on Diesel, she goes mental jumping about over the top of me, sniffing at the duvet pawing at it trying to get at me! An if she gets in a get licked to death sometimes if she's in kitchen i'll hide under one of the couch throws on the floor tucked right in to the couch and shout her thru.
Also hide and seek down the hosp in the mornings, although thats getting dangerous now its dark...i fell down a hole and them my oh almost ripped his eye out on a branch running round a bush!

Ours is play fighting with the boys lasts for ages and the OH always ends up at the bottom

Ohhhh yes we play hide and seek with Rocky too. He also used to play kiss chase around the shed in the summertime, but not so much now

good old tug of war for sash with her daddy

Old tug of war with OH, Debo pretent to run away with his toy and I'm "traying " to get him-he goes mental,he likes hide and seek

I like to play 'Which hand?' with Dempsey. I hold out both hands, closed into fists, with a treat in one of them, making sure that he doesn't see which hand the treat goes into. I bring both hands up to his nose, then away from each other and say 'Which hand?'. He has to use his nose and tap the hand with the treat in it.

He's not very good. If he thinks there's a treat in the empty hand, he'll keep nudging it, even after I've shown him that there's nothing there!

We play the its a monster game which is a bit like Dave and Cassie describe only I shout it's a monster and Dex snarls and growls and jumps all over me. Our latest game is the cup game, hiding treats under paper cups for him to find Play fighting is a good bit of fun too, more tiring than I remembered as a child though Must be getting old!

Thought it would be fun to share and it definitely is.
Laughing quite hard!

Either tug of war or play fighting.

Loki does the same thing, he'll go for the same hand repeatedly even when he knows nothing is in there

I like playing tug-of-war. He goes insane and he's strong, it lasts for ages before one of us wins cos we're both competitive

Musical chairs without the music.

I get up, both of them ninja the sofa !

I come bk in sit on the other sofa, they both come over.

I move to other sofa, they follow lol !

Haha what a plank! Bless Demps we all love him even though his head is filled with cotton wool!!!

And we tend to play running and chasing, we take it in turns to be it (me and the dogs that is!) Also wrestling is fun and hide and seek. We can't really play tug too much cus everyone gets over excited and nippy trying to be the first one on the toy. We play 'branch' in the park where me and OH get a massive branch and let them hang on. We take one end each and carry them until they give up! It must look so funny to the other park-users!

hiding under the duvet is always good fun. hide and seek too.
another i do is get him in my room, ( i have remote control lighting) switch the light off and drop down and crawl, then flick the light back on. no doubt he knows i've moved with his hearing and senses but his face is always a picture when i turn the light back on. sometimes he has literally just jumped on top of me in the dark!

I would love to see that Nosipho. It does sound really funny.

Aww thats so sweet Stiviec.Your picture is so sweet. What a cutie pie of a staffy.
Also just remembered my ex's dog love catch the fly. U make zzzzz noise and pretend to ndicate a fly flying about. He goes mental and make the strangest and funniest noises, he really loves that game.

Betsy's favs include good old fashioned fetch, football- she can be a bit of a ball hogger but we're working on that one - a nutmeg (ball through the legs) gets a sausage , mummy hides and Betsy finds - she goes nuts for that game. Guess I do too

chasing tennis balls across a field (tennis rackets are brilliant for this), play fight / wrestling, play catch in the living room (she brings the ball back for that, i dont even have to get out of the chair), tug of war if i can get her worked up enough to play, otherwise she just lets go.
