Re: Do you play fight?
No Giant owners admitting to play fighting (giggle)
I don't know whether I'd call it fighting but sometimes Rufus and I get into it when he's being a monkey! I bit of rough and tumble settles him down occasionally.
I pretend to creep up on him with my fingers wriggling and he'll play bow, then when I'm close enough he throws himself sideways and rolls onto his back. I then have a rough old tickling session, he has ticklish arm pits! He roo's and nudges and mouths, and wriggles around but doesn't bite. Then we finish with him on his side having long strokes from head to tail.

I used to when Tara was younger and still do with some of the minis, just have to make sure it is a 1.2.1 session otherwise one of the others can get to carried away

Re: Do you play fight?
I've started play fighting with Freds, when he's got the zoomies he runs up and jumps up at me and I scratch his bum and shout 'GOT YOUR BUMMY!' and he goes mad, runs in circles, jjumps back up, barks, the lot.

'Pullerhair' is Daisy's version of that
What is it with the paws though?!

Re: Do you play fight?
Great to hear more about playfighting! At the mo I let George mouth me when he's having tickles and his bite inhibition is good. Shame about the same inhibition for when he's cranky or overexcited

Re: Do you play fight?
I either bow down on all fours and hit the floor with my hands, or if stanley is slow to respond I just blow at him. For some reason when you blow air at him he goes mental and we have a real mad play session!

hehe Daisy gets silly with air blowing, she's tiny enough to really throw about, she loves it!
I 'spin' her round, and that gives her the zoomies

Re: Do you play fight?
Wahey!
loving the vids!
Arthur is soooo cute and I thought just the same Sianny "is that a Schnauzer thing how they sit down in kinda slow mo and as though they are humouring you"?! Claude does the exact same and usually licks his lips and yawns at the same time just to make me feel really honoured!
Ralphy is hilarious with his running away with his tail and back legs all safely tucked up and out of reach!
Claude loves play fighting and will keep going all night if we let him - tongue hanging out and bum in the air.
To make sure it doesn't get out of control we randomly tell him to sit which he does and he does understand when its over.
Sianny I love the face rubbing! If I lay there like that Claude would get all stressed and paw at my head!
