My mocha puppy doggy girl is the most brainless black lab in the entire western hemisphere! Yet I wanna teach her a new trick, I want HER to through the ball, and I will go get it. Ever done this?

I think you will have better luck the other way around Aaron.

Also
Its been cold and she knows its warmer inside and demands to sleep with me and won't shut up, yet I wonder, if she must come in because of the cold and really needs to make me wake up with flea bites, what about the cats, how do they handle it?

All animals need shelter when it's cold enough out.

Kainslie - he wants the dog to throw the ball so he can fetch it.

Oh.. I though he wanted to go through the ball... I was thinking a hoop... Ha.
I still don't really get it, but it makes more sense now.
ETA:
Is this what you want? but with greater distance?

Another one I been wanting to try is teach her to roll the ball to me after I roll the ball to her then I'll roll it back to her then she will roll it back to me and I'll roll it back to her and have her roll the ball back to me.

Some will actually do that, Aaron. Not sure how you'd go about training that, though. I think, however, she'd have to have a reallly good grasp of all the basic commands before you could even think about that.

Our mini schnauzer will do that. We call her our soccer-dog. She did it naturally when she was a little puppy and we found it hilarious. She still does it, but she will not always roll it back to you.  |
