Had my young dog retrieving a ball or anything I threw for him no problem straight back but then season came and once he caught a bunny he would just stand over it and I’d have to go to him however much I tried to call him in or he’d just leave it and come to me so as we don’t catch to many anyway it didn’t bother me. He caught one on a walk out couple of weeks ago and straight back to me and dropped it for me so like you say a bit of training and he should be ok. My dog started to push his luck a little at around age your dog must be now. Couple months later, like nothing ever happend. Soon c
