Sky never used to be interested in balls or objects at all, but we encountered a problem when we did our silver (I think it was the silver) Good Citizens - one of the requirements is the dog has to give up a toy on command. Our problem was not so much the giving up as the persuading Sky to show the slightest bit of interest in the first place so any of part of her behaviour could then be construed as giving it up on command. So I clicker trained her to pick up one of those dumbbells that's covered in tennis ball stuff, and it seemed to activate the tennis ball switch in her brain and ever since then she's been all tennis ball all the time. So the trick is to find Bryth's tennis ball switch.
