| Re: Learning to Catch
Gotta say, our Rottie was definately NOT interested. She would catch a treat just fine. Stray cat you say? The game was on. But a ball, no way. Retrieving ... forget it! I worked and worked with her. Definitely wasn't her thing. You could get her to do it once, MAYBE twice if you were lucky. Anything more and she'd look at you with this puzzled expression that basically stated ... "I just brought that back to you. You went and threw it again??? You go get it now, ya dummy." Anything else, she'd do just great. But this ... nope. Still makes me laugh to this day when I think about it. I'll never forget the expression on her face. One of those "Kodak" moments forever imprinted on my brain and is a great memory of her to have. |
