We played around with having him stop on a target. He just threw it at me from farther lol. I found something that seems to give me a tad more than an immediate drop or throw. If I stand up, he pauses a bit as he looks up – almost looking for my hand. Thoughts?
Here’s where we’re at 🙂
I tried holding onto it a bit to build some duration. But he thinks it’s more of a tug. How do you help a dog transition who is so wired to “retrieve” and drop it to you?
