I'm trying to teach Sammy to fetch. So far it's not going that well. Maybe I'm being too hard on him. Maybe he can't handle the pressure. Maybe he's an idiot.
Personally, I think he's faking it. I suspect he's actually a smart dog and is just dumbing down out of convenience, like Jessica Simpson.
Either way, he's much more content chewing up a ball than bringing it back to me.
At least now he's showing interest in the ball instead of watching it roll away while looking at me like I have three heads. I guess that means we're half way there.
Dogs are bred for different tasks, and Sammy probably doesn't have much retriever in him. Unless retrieving small animals counts.
