[tlhIngan Hol] is the choice between -Daq and -vaD influenced by the way something is given?

Read the following:
yaSvaD taj vInob
I give the knife to the officer
yaSvaD taj vIqem
I give the knife to the officer by bringing it to him
yaSvaD taj vIngeH
I give the knife to the officer by sending it to him
So when giving something to someone we use the {-vaD} regardless whether we
bring it to him, or send it to him.
But would we use the {-vaD} too even if we threw the knife to him?
Ha'DIbaHvaD chuvmey vIvo'
I give the leftovers to the animal by throwing them to it
Would this sentence be correct, or does the {vo'} change something, thus
making the choice of {-vaD} wrong?
I don't see any reason for the choice between {-Daq} and {-vaD} to be
influenced by the way something is given, but I'd like to verify this.
