I have a 5 month old puppy that is a Lab mix. I would like to teach her to catch a frisby but I don't know how. Any suggestions? ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

We taught our dog to catch thing by first throwing him pieces of popcorn. Once he caught on to that we moved on to toys. Some dogs just aren't good at catching things. You can throw a piece of popcorn at my husky - and he'll just keep letting it hit him in the head!

Lol fullhouse, I'm teaching my dog to catch things right now, start off with throwing him smaller objects, then as he progresses use bigger objects. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

Our German Shepher/Pix mix tries to catch everything now. If you throw him a basketball - he can catch it between his front legs. That's pretty good considering his size - I think he's only about 40 lbs. He's a little character though! Just leaned down to give him a kiss - and he burped in my face!
