    Plenty of better ways to train a dog. But if you need that kind of training, I would suggest you get your dog a playmate. I know lots of dogs can't play with other dogs. But I have found out that proper socialization early in life can make at least most of mine play with dogs of the opposite sex.

    muzzle rolling is a great tool to use in a keep. However don't do it too often, or for long period of time. They will run hot faster with a muzzle on.

    I do exact same thing. Littermates only though, always supervised. Just me and the dogs, having a stranger around changes dynamics and is disastrous.

    This is very interesting to me as I'm forever a student of dog behavior. I visited a friends yard who has a handful of dogs most of which "grew up together" so to speak granted they never played with one another but I noticed a few of his kennels butted up to one another and I asked if he ever had any problems with any of them trying to get at each other thru the fence and he said no it was almost like they had a "pack mentality" but bring a new dog to the yard and its a whole different story. He also had it set up so it was a female next to a male and etc... this was the first real yard visited and I was surprised by this but am learning it is common.

    Again, that's what I do, male next to female next to male next to female, littermates preferably.
