fetch

Eshistou is finally getting the hang of the concept of fetching something we throw. Until she was 3 months old we'd throw something and she'd look at us like we were nuts. After 3 months she started to chase the thing we'd throw then settle down and start chewing on the object. Now at 4 months she fetches no problems. If she gets distracted then we just say fetch again and she starts looking again. Now we're working on getting her to drop the object at our feet so we don't have to fish anything out of her mouth. It currently works about 50% of the time.

Eshistou a enfin compris le concepte de raporter quelque chose quand on le jete. (fetch) Avant 3 mois quand on jettait son jouet elle nous regardait comme si on était fous. Après 3 mois elle chassait le jouet et le machoillait sans rapporter. A 4 mois elle reviens avec l'objet. Si elle est distraite on redit le mot fetch et elle se remets à chercher. Maintenant nous travaillons une technique de la faire cracher le jouet pour ne pas avoir à le chercher dans sa geule. (le mot 'drop'). Ca marche à 50% en ce moment.
