Think teaching fetch means just tossing a toy and hoping for the best? Think again. In this video, Instructor Kayl breaks down exactly how to build a reliable fetch by starting indoors with proven McCann Dogs techniques. You’ll learn why most people get fetch wrong, and how to train it in reverse for better long-term results.
We’ll show you: ✅ Why starting outside ruins fetch ✅ How to use tug and trade to build drive and control ✅ What to do when your puppy runs off with the toy ✅ How to use toys, food, and body language to your advantage ✅ And how to problem-solve when your dog won’t bring the toy back
Whether your puppy loves toys, loves food, or struggles with both—this guide will set them (and you!) up for success.
