Playing Catch the Cookie

Playing catch is a fun game that improves coordination and builds your bond with your dog. The more you practice, the better you’ll get. So to really give it a chance, avoid expectations or rules, and focus on having fun together. Start with a hungry dog, using highly visible pieces of food. Light, large tortillas are one of my favorites since they drop slowly and are easily visible. Popcorn and lettuce are other options that fly slowly. Introduce catching in a safe, distraction free environment. If your puppy disengages and wanders away from you, use a leash on the dog (or a leash on the toy). Puppy catching a stuffed duck. Photo by Hunter’s Heart. If you are working with a younger puppy, you may have to teach the dog to slowly follow food in your hand first, then roll it on the ground and then progress to catching from the air like the video. Make it as easy as possible by holding your hand right above the dog’s head and dropping the food directly into his mouth. Keep your dog guessing by mixing it up. If it turns into a game of chase, go with the flow. For more ideas, check out our videos at: https://nosework.huntersheart.com/2018/04/05/ playing-catch-with-your-dog/. For some dogs when they miss catching a piece of food, it can be motivational when you race them to the dropped food on the floor and steal it. That way they have a greater incentive to catch the next piece. But if it’s not motivational, don’t do it. If you do grab the food some of the time, be sure to let the dog win other times. If you have multiple dogs, give them the chance to all play catch at once (provided that none are resource guarders). Puppies can watch the older dogs and learn how to succeed. Competition generally makes dogs try harder to win the prize. For dogs that are toy motivated, try playing catch with a soft plush toy, a rolled-up sock or a frisbee. Start by rolling the item on the ground close to the puppy and/or playing chase and tug. When your dog’s ready for a challenge, try throwing it in the air. (Be sure to limit your choices of objects to catch to lightweight items that won’t hurt or scare the dog if they accidentally hit the dog on the head.) You can only work effectively on one thing at a time. You can’t work on drive to catch AND a controlled out/give to get the treats back at the same session. We teach food manners in separate sessions so the pup learns to ignore food distractions rather than trying to steal them. When it’s time to play, relax your rules and lower any expectations. Don’t be too goal oriented and try to make the dog learn to catch faster. My 6-month-old puppies are lousy catchers, but playing is still fun. Over time we’ll build focus, drive, and catching ability. After I’ve exhausted the bait, my pups follow me around looking for the next fun game to happen. That engagement is priceless. Give catch a try and see if it might be a fun game for your Brittany.
