Sophie who we rescued at age 2 finally learned fetch!!! It took a year and a half but she finally got it! We were so excited!!! I cried and hugged her and she just looked at me like "mom, you are crazy now throw the ball I am ready to go." She was wagging her tail and her eyes were sparkling. One thing I have learned with my two rescues is that it may take them a little longer to love trust and pick up "normal" doggie things but the reward is 10 times worth it!!! I am so proud of her
