Hey /an/, I'm wondering how rough is too rough to play

If it's hurting your dog or training it to be aggressive.

>>2034055
If you notice your dog flinching, trying to escape, or retaliating with bites.

So would it be okay to punch your dog as long as he's not showing any signs of being hurt?

>>2034077
Absolutely. It shows your human superiority to them.
But the second it starts getting aggressive back, then do what our ancestors did when taming/domesticating them: yell really loud, if s/he doesn't get the message, then just dive onto it and bite down moderately softly on its neck.

It'll know you're the undisputed alpha then.

Humans arent supposed to act like dogs.
Also, this is what wolves do, not dogs really.
This easy step-to-step guide to being alpha is bullshit, an alpha being is a being the other subordinates can trust and look up for guidance. Remember: it's trust, not fear.

Dogs are literally wolves you fucking moron.

>>2035377
Is this bait or are you stupid?

>>2035382
You may be retarded. I suggest consulting with a doctor.

There are multiple behavioral studies that illustrate the social and developmental differences between dogs and wolves. This isn't hard thing to google.

Holy shit... That is some next level stupidity right there.

>>2034074
I 2nd this.

You can punch your dog, just don't do it too hard. You can even kick your dog, as long as you don't kick your dog too hard.
