if you take him out and let him chase some rabbits or do what i did with my first pup is to take a rabbits foot on the end of a line of a fishing pole and swing if around you and let the dog chase it,making sure its bouncing off the ground and then he or she will start to open up on it, and then cast it out without letting him see where you casted it and then when he gets close don't let him see you real it in to you and when he gets on the line he will open up on the foot...make sure that the foot was put in hot water for a sec.
