The genius of cross training is that you work the same muscles in different patterns and along different pathways. The muscles required in chaturanga dandasana in yoga are different from the muscles used in traditional western push-ups. It is great to work on both.
If you want to build dynamic strength and stability in your shoulder and rotator cuff, I highly recommend getting two dogs. They should be a minimum of 60 pounds as adults and it is imperative that they be poorly trained.
You will be amazed not just at the way they will be able to yank you to and fro but at they way your muscles will work to stabilize the body against these forces.
Good luck.
