    Hi, how do I stop Charlie retrieving his ball until I say so, he will sit/wait until the cows come home but as soon as I throw the ball he bombs after it? Hattie will sit/wait until I tell her "go get it" Thank you. Helen x

    Helen, that's steadiness training. Are you sure that Charlie is now addicted to retrieving ? If you steady him up too soon it might stifle his desire to retrieve.
