When i play fetch with my dog, he goes to get the ball- but instead of coming back to me and dropping the ball- he runs in the other direction. He doesn't come when i try to coax him over, and if i quit the game to try to get the point across he doesn't understand. I want him to get better with retrieval and return, and i want him to know "drop it" eventually as well.
*Then when we play frisbee, he waits for it to hit the ground, then retrieves it and runs off. (the same as he does with fetch.)
My dog is very smart and trains very easily. I dont know how to teach him to play properly, but if i did I know that he could learn quickly. Like they say- if your dog is (repeatedly) doing something wrong, it is probably your fault.
If you can tell me what techniques you use (or used) -or even give me some professional advise, i would really appreciate it! Thanks!
