Canines can get quite annoyed when humans fake play with them. While they love chasing balls and Frisbees around the yard or at the park, they hate the fake act of pretending to throw. They may get excited the first few times, and they might even run to catch the pretend ball, but upon finding out that the owner is just faking it, the dog will stop playing, even if it’s for real. (I guess the lesson here is that nobody likes a faker!) So loosen your arm and be ready to throw the ball or Frisbee around. Your dog will thank you for the extra effort.
