Haha! I didn't post any videos. I can barely post a reply. I know nobody is worried about cleanliness. Coming out clean is a loose term for not getting knicked up or worse.

Oh sorry! JasonL posted that vid.  But what does your explanation of "clean" have to do with white jeans, then?

Note: I'm only asking because you're "the best."

 The punching is going to happen ... especially if you can get your dog to come back to you when he has a tug in his mouth like Ellis with his dog.

Missing the tug and biting the handler though - that most likely has to do with handler giving an iffy tug presentation or if you have a pup that has not learn to target well yet. 

I feel the punching is fine. The biting - well, with high drive dogs it's gonna to happen once in awhile - but it's not good and should be avoided if possible. That is, it should not be a frequent occurrence.

I just meant that even if you perfect this game, you're still gonna get it once in a while. That's where the white jeans come in. I meant that nobody is immune to a decent dog. And contact is going to happen. It's not the show ring where they wear business suits. But how pimp would that be to show up to training with all white on and a big gold medallion betwixt layers of chest hair?

I personally like to go in red tights under my shredded jeans. With high heels, cuz they help to grip the turf.

I expect my dogs to push into me with their paws while tugging, and I encourage it.  Scratch pants may not be a bad idea. 

If the dog touches my face I would end the game, you don't want to encourage that kind of pushy behavior it can be dangerous.  I got hit in the chin once (said Foos! and the dog jumps up into the air to fip heel, hitting me in the chin with his front teeth), end the game if theres any flesh bitten, my dogs target pretty well so that doesnt happen much

Thanks everyone  for all the replies! I don't mind getting dirty or a few bruises, but this is crazy. (See what I mean) So now do I not only have to be a post I have to learn to move out of the way too??? Haha!! 
From the sounds and looks of it, I am putting myself in the way, and I do tend to lift the tug up when making them miss, yet something else I'm working on.  The videos seem like they will help, thanks Jason!
I will look into the protective clothing, even if it only helps a little...And even if it is too hot. At this rate I will never be able to wear shorts without people staring at me like I'm a battered woman, that gets poked with fingertips  LOL
Doberdoodle, I got a bloody nose from that exact scenario the other day. Fuss to Galan means hop up in my face, then pivot haha!!! Only it was Indi who gave me the bloody nose.
I'm 36, but an old 36 LOL
And yes I know my legs are very white, in fact they GLOW and at this rate I'll never be able to tan haha!
