We’ve only had 1 dog who played fetch, in all our histories with them. Which is why I have no clue why the ball ended up in the basket when we got the new puppy stuff. We were in the aisle, her tucked away in her puppy kennel as we got the fun stuff we’d waited to get until we actually found her and I turn around and start to say “there’s a collie!” and the woman who trained her started to explain about Shelties and I explain it was just that he looked big because our Sheltie had come home that day. But the ball came home, and the first time someone threw it she ran after it, looked at him, and apparently realized if she took it back she could run after it again. She believes love is shown by food and by throwing, and so professional pitchers must, to her, have big hearts
About 30 years ago, I spent about half an hour on a break at a retreat throwing pitches to a friend. By the time I got home from the retreat, my arm hurt like crazy. I asked my brother, who had been an all-county pitcher in HS and still played on a high-level amateur team, how much he threw his first time out at the start of a season. “15,” he said. “Minutes?” I asked. “Pitches,” he replied.
