My dog takes pretty much everything as a game...Clicker training is a great game, he starts bouncing in excitement when I get the clicker out. We don't always do anything "real", just shape whatever. Its a great game to play when tired- you can just sit in a chair and wait for the dog to work out what will get a click!

Retrieving is a favorite "game" too.
Running around aimlessly is fun too. I run, he chases me. I turn, he turns and catches up, I turn again, and so on.
The kicking game is fun! I kick (gentley, of course) at him, he bounces and tries to figure out how to get close enough to leap up and lick my face.![]()
"Go find" is excellent, its both fun and makes them think. Put the dog in a sit/stay, show a toy, then hide it. Tell the dog to find it, and it has to find that specific toy.
And theres lots more games Web and I like to play too...![]()
