    Some breeds have a better instinct for fetch than others. Belle (the setter mix) will play fetch, but Maggie (the coonhound) will just let toys hit her in the head or will go after them and then bay at them as they are laying on the ground . It's still entertaining for me either way though

    How I taught Sam was I had two tennis balls. I would show him both of them, throw one ball, then he's look at me seeing I had another one. He'd run back and it was like a trade... I threw the other ball and we'd keep switching off.

    Ripley-we used a clicker, however we only needed it for flyball, as far as he is concerned the entire purpose of a ball is as barganing chips lol

    Blair-cant be tought, he gets halfway to the toy and fogets what he was doing lol

    Perky-not much of a player, but when the mood strikes her she plays fetch, we never tought her how though.

    Happy and Misty...their border collies, teaching was not nessisary, it was more a matter of teaching them NOT to keep bringing us our stuff lol
