How to Train a Puppy to Fetch
Teaching a dog to fetch is a great way to build a bond and burn off energy, and it works best with the right setup. Start during the growth phase (around 4–6 months) or a dog's energetic years (3–7). Pick a ball of the right size and bounce—tennis or ping-pong balls work well—and build interest by letting the dog sniff it, or by rubbing the ball with a favorite food scent if it shows no interest. Throw it a short distance, give the 'fetch' cue, and reward the return with praise, petting, or a treat so the dog learns the behavior pays off. If the dog won't pick up or won't bring it back, demonstrate yourself, use a treat to trade for the ball, and stay patient. Keep sessions to 15–20 minutes.
