Tug of War with Fido?

I figured this is the right place to post this. But I love to play with my dog. Some of the games we play take so much energy.
Are there games that anyone enjoys playing with their dog? pet?
I am an animal lover. Who else is out there in the MFP world?

I am an animal lover!!

Sadly, I don't have a dog though! I would REALLY love one - and we have seriously considered the idea several times over the past couple of years, but with the nature of my job at the moment it's too big a commitment!

I have two gorgeous cats though! And play with them and their 'goldfish toy' haha. Can't say it requires as much energy as playing with a dog...well, playing with Mr Glover is quite energetic - you can run around the room and he'll fly around after you...but Marvin is a 'lazy player' - he launches himself for the goldfish, sinks his claws into it and then sits on it! :laugh:

I am a huge animal lover and run or walk with my dogs every day! I especially love running with my big dog, he gets so into it and keeps me motivated!

I love animals, I have a dog and a cat. They get along great. My dog goes on my walks with me every afternoon. She is awesome..she tries to play tag with me..lol

We've got two dogs and love them to pieces! We love having them do tricks (they can do roll over, crawl, shake...) and they love getting treats from doing tricks lol. The younger of the two LOVES playing ball and is almost like the energize bunny on crack LOL. The other one is lazy but will occasionaly wrestle with the other which is hilarious because they tear through the house chasing each other! Going for runs with them is another definition of insane because even at 35 lbs combined, they've got some crazy pull power and definitely make you put your all into it!!

I have two dogs and neither dog will play much.

But when I go to my parent's house it's on.

They have a Boston Terrier that loves to play, she will bring me her toys and the tug of war is on.
