<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>ruffware.com says that, "tug rings aren't
interactive enough and they don't make them." I did order one from
Petsmart. Most of the ring has spikes to clean the dogs' teeth and it's
scented with Vanilla. I wish I could remember who made those rings that
GDB. used to sell. Bye for now. </FONT></DIV>

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Imagine my surprise
when I couldn't buy a replacement tug ring. They just aren't there any
more; oh there are soft rings with squeakers in them and pull toys with rings
on either end and rope toys, etc. All of these are but poor substitutes
for a hard rubber tug ring for a nice game of tug-of-war at the end of the
day. All of those double and triple rings just make for a more
complicated and busy appearance while adding nothing to the pure game of
tug-of-war which does so much to build the bonds of friendship and respect
between us and our guides. I say we launch a concerted campaign to bring
them back into the market place for the sense of fun and the wellbeing of
ourselves and our guides. We can hold all the meetings we want to: but I
say lets show'em what CAGDU and anybody else who will join us can do.
Take up our chant. Bring back the ring. This will be a fine
gage of our measure. </SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV></DIV>
