Hey, canine enthusiasts. Today we're featuring a doggo training story that may just hit close to home for some of you. In the quest to teach their canine companion to fetch, one dog owner and the original poster of today's featured post encountered a hilarious challenge. The dog, seemingly uninterested in fetching, had eyes only for the tempting treats. Despite the owner's injury restricting physical activities, they were determined to find a way to bond with their playful canine.
The pup displayed boundless energy when it came to chasing a ball or stick but retrieving it? Not his cup of tea. Initially, the owner tried to lure him with training treats, which worked for a short while. The dog enthusiastically chased the ball, earning rewards. However, the following day, it was a different story; he became fixated on the treat bag, ignoring the ball altogether. OP felt disheartened, as their previous bonding activities involved outdoor play. Seeking advice, the owner turned to the dog-loving community for suggestions on quirky and fun ways to tackle the fetching challenge or find alternative ways to connect with their doggo.
