Like Karen said,, every dog is diff. my Toy Poodle i had didnt care for a game of fetch. he also did not like water. he acted like he was made of sugar whenever he happened upon a stream/lake or pond or if it was raining out he didnt wanna go out. yet his breed was bred to retrieve their masters downed birds from water. thats even why if you look at Poodles in the show ring they look weird with these big poofs of hair here an there an yet shaved everywhere else. the poofy areas cover vital organs like lungs/heart etc thatd be vulnerable to the cold an shaved in other parts to not weigh the dog down. yet other Poodles would literally live in water if they could an or play fetch till your arm fell off. or both
