Teach dogs retrieving

  • Pick an object that your pup or dog enjoys playing with.
  • Tease the dog with the toy until he is excited about getting to it.
  • When this happens, throw the toy a few feet.
  • When the dog goes after the toy, give the dog praise.
  • As the dog does this consistently, add the command "fetch" (or whatever commands you want to use) with the action.
  • Always praise the dog when he brings the object back to you.
  • If he brings you something that is "off limits", take that object and replace it with something he is allowed to have.
  • DON'T reprimand the dog when he brings you these "off limits" objects.
  • Some breeds are more willing to retrieve than others.
  • There are training methods that require professional direction that go beyond the scope of this discussion.
  • Getting your dog involved in an obedience course will provide the proper and necessary training to advanced work.
