Now he can even catch frisbees! He'll never be a Border Collie frisbee catching maniac but he enjoys it enough that it's fun for both of us.

Jackson is so smart! Love how he catches the frisbee..wow!! I wish Scottie could catch too. He also was not a natural fetcher, but I too have tried to train him into fetching with treats. He likes the ChuckIt for a little while..but he has very short attention spans lol...
