Crikey! I wish Oscar showed interest like that in a ball - he only plays for a couple of minutes then walks away from it!

You can use that tremendous interest in training - watch how close your dog will stick to your side when he knows you've got the ball - bit difficult in the hall, but when you're in a different environment it will be great! Some people use treats and others a ball - outcome is the same!

Charlene i watched the Cesar Millan DVD series one. Marcella and john rent it out at class and there was a dog on it that had a ball fetish. I cant remember what they done about it if you watch it you might get a few hints.
