Dogs on Thurday: A pup and her ball!

Abbygirl LOVES to play fetch!  If you are willing, she would fetch a ball for you for as long as you let her!  When we first got her, she was frustrating because she wouldn't drop it and so the game ended quickly.  Once she figured out that if she drops the ball the game can then go on, it got to be more fun to play with her. :)  It took treats and lots of training but she figured it out!

I found this video on my iPhone that was taken back in late February when I first got it.  It's super cute! Abby is really good about not stealing the ball from CGR...even though it's killing her not to just grab it!  I'm working on teaching her to play fetch with Abbygirl.  I think they will love that game!

This next video is from yesterday at lunch.  When it's a nice day and I have time during lunch, I like to play fetch with Abby.  I usually use our Chuckit Ball Launcher so my hands don't get all dirty but wasn't sure where it was yesterday.  The launcher is awesome because it also helped with getting Abby to drop the ball.  I could get to the ball faster before she picked it back up again.  Jackjack as you can tell is not interested and just wants to be left to his own devices.

Hope you enjoyed the fun videos of my golden girl!

Happy Dogs on Thursday!!

Does your pup like to play fetch?  Or do you have a pup like Jackjack who is just not that into it?

  1. My terriers have loved balls. Sissy will play catch with the Knight, but tires of fetch in a toss or two.

    1. She only really tires of it quickly when she's really tired. :) Jackjack only will play when he wants to...which is rare.

  3. Rocco will fetch 3 or 4 times and then he gets bored and wanders off! Crazy!

    1. I can't get Jackjack to even get started. Abby is such a retriever. :)
