I figured it might be nice to have a thread where folks can drop in and chat about training techniques, as well as asking those smaller questions about training which don't seem to warrant a fill thread.
For example - BluePup's 16 months old now; he's a medium-sized rescue mongrel and I got him exactly one year ago today. He's fairly bright and has picked up a lot of the things I've taught him, and seems really willing to obey. There's just one thing I've not managed - retrieving. It's not the end of the world, but it's the case of many a lost ball! He's more than happy to chase a toy if I throw it, and then to march proudly around the field with it in his mouth then lie down somewhere and chew on it. However if I call him back to me he'll drop the toy and come running back without it. Any recommendations?
