Izzysdad Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Tobey is 2, Izzy is 8 months, never know how to play fetch apparently. I've been working on this b/c when I'm getting ready to throw said object they both get super excited, I throw said object they go running after it at which time they arrive at said object and begin a wrestling match which turns into a catch me if you can game with said object and I'm left standing there wondering where I went wrong That is all.

SS Cressa Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Wait- did i really hear that right? You stand there and watch them? When my boy- Conner does this with the other dogs i join in and chase everyone around. Try it- its a blast!!!! Whats even funnier is that they try to "dumb" down the game so I can play with them. They go in "slow mo" so i can keep up, and they encourage me when i cant catch them. they even do "fake" herding moves on me, slowly so i get it. lol oh and if you want to teach fetch, train it individually and have a high value cookie on you. shaneen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat W. Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 My aussie's favorite game when gets ahold of the prize is catch me if you can with the participating human, his wiggle goes up in the air and he makes these big loping loops so we can keep up. My daughter obliges him since my knees dont really appriciate the pounding around for the heck of it anymore. It usually turns into a wild free for all when the 3 border collies join in.
