Jasper taught himself to fetch.
I threw his crinkle ball for him to chase, and he picked it up in his mouth. I wasn’t surprised, as he loves to run around carrying his toys... but then he turned around, trotted over to me, and dropped it at my feet.
I was so shocked. We haven’t even started clicker training yet. He did this all on his own. I made do with treats and pets as a reward. He’s done it a few times since then, when he’s in the mood, in exchange for more treats and chin scritches. It’s absolutely adorable.
His brother hasn’t figured it out yet, so maybe when we start clicker training he’ll catch on. Percy’s more interested in snuggling in the beanbag, anyways. Jasper, on the other hand, will do anything for food. He’s not beneath begging after he’s just been fed and when there’s a whole bowl of dry food waiting for him.
