You’ve taught your dog to retrieve? Wonderful! Retrieving is mental, emotional & physical good stuff for your dog – and for you, too. Connection, communication, play, joy. ☮️

In addition to using a retrieve for toy play and / or sport training, incorporate that wonderful retrieve into daily life. Let your dog help if you drop an item or need an item picked up!
