This is really a lesson I would like to learn, actually 2 lessons: 1.  When walking dogs, why do they have to walk over and get as close as they can to the road to poop?  Sorry if that is TMI... but it happens with a lot of dogs and I'm just curious!

2.  When playing tug-a-war with dogs and rope toys (for those owners who allow their dogs to play this game), why do the dogs always want to bite near the handle where my hand is?

Just curious....
