Great advice! Treats work magic.
Another thing I did that helped with "drop it" was to throw one ball and as they're bringing it back, pull out a second one. The idea is to get them to come to you, drop it, and chase the second one. If they still don't want to drop the one they have, make sure the second ball or toy is of a higher value than the first, i.e., maybe a squeaky plush toy.
