DOs | |
- play with her before she has anything to eat in the morning. | |
That way she'll be hungrier for any reward you give her, | |
and she'll be willing to pay more attention to you. | |
- try different balls, or balls with squakers inside, or any object really. | |
What you want at the beginning is to create drive so she will chase it. | |
Find something that she really wants and tease her for her to grab it. | |
- As soon as she grabs the ball, say YES! and throw some kibble on the floor by her side. | |
When she goes for the food, grab the ball and start again. | |
- start with her leashed. Having to walk to get the ball every time until she | |
learns is a pita. If she's leashed to you, you can control where she can go, | |
so you can play longer and get less frustrated. | |
- use two identical balls. This will help with the drop it part of fetch when | |
she shows enough interest. What's best than the ball she already has? | |
the same exact ball that's in your hand. | |
- make it FUN! | |
DON'Ts | |
- don't throw the ball until she really really wants it |
