[QUOTE="whwood21, post: 5172772, member: 19909"] Short sessions with the known commands if you can get them in an email or recall them, 20 minutes is plenty of time morning and evening especially on a young dog. Or reprogram with your commands as stated above but it will take time. The dog will figure it out with time, important. If he's only a year old, wow he was FF'ed early it sounds like. Sounds like you are expecting an out of the box working dog at a very young age which does not exist (we all get excited and have a little bit of that), he has years to grow up and perfect his art. I don't let people play fetch with my dog, no one is willing to play by the rules and they all want her to drop bumpers......sigh. Dokken has a great book for retriever training if you are looking for another reading source. [/QUOTE]
