Retrieve seems to be coming along!

Well has Inca at class last night, we did the retrieve, i had already warned Mo, trainer, that she is not getting it, but Mo just said see how she is. So presented dumbbell, and nothing, so she then said put it on floor, i did, still expecting nothing, and the little madame picked it up and threw it at me!! she never does this at home lol, bless her,. still least i know she knows what she is supposed to do lol!

fab, sounds like the penny is dropping.
Make her carry it around abit, around the house a garden (if she will do that)
On a plus note, dogs that struggle to learn the ret, often end up with better Rets than dogs that get it fast.
(because its taught more thoroughly i suppose)

yes she was happily carrying it around, whilst i was manically calling her and running backwards lol, so fingers crossed, it sticks!
