Like I said earlier, this is a game of ball between master and dog. If you disobey, you'll just be punished. If that's the case, you should change your position to that of a third party, neither dog nor master. A third party? The ball. Turn yourself into the ball getting thrown, just bouncing and rolling. At first glance, it may appear unseemly, but the reality is, that's the way to get hurt least and not get drained. That's the wise action, you know.
