Teaching your dog to retrieve can be quite useful, even though my old Coonhound Thurman got quite Lippy with me at the end lol. Thurman was such a sweet man, and I have to tell you the craziest thing about this video. Thurman passed 2 years ago, but every time I play a video of him barking, my dog Roscoe gets so amped up. I listen to dog videos all day, and he never makes a peep, but as soon as he hears Thurman’s bay, he looks all over the house. I can’t explain it, but it’s crazy. | Say It Once

Teaching a small dog to retrieve? Here’s a smart way to build clarity and confidence using a platform: • Start by introducing a platform your dog already knows and loves. • Shape the behaviour of picking up an object and placing it on the platform. • This gives your dog a clear target and starts building purposeful movement. • For small dogs, this setup removes pressure and makes retrieving feel achievable. • Once your dog is confident, gradually angle the platform so it rests against your body.
