First of all, it should be trained to develop the conditioned reflex of "title" and "spit" commands. Training methods should be treated separately according to the dog's neurological type and special circumstances. Generally, induction and forced methods are used.

When training with the induction method, you should choose a quiet environment and items that can easily arouse the dog's excitement. Hold the object in your right hand and shake it quickly in front of the dog to arouse the dog's excitement. Then throw it 1-2 meters away and immediately give the "hold" command. When the dog reaches the object and wants to pick it up, repeat it. Give the "hold" command. If the dog holds the object, give the "good" command and a petting reward. Let the dog hold the object in its mouth for a moment (about 30 seconds), and then issue the "spit" command. After the owner takes the object, Food rewards should be given. After repeated many times, conditioned reflex can be formed.

Some dogs need to be trained using forced methods. At this time, make the dog sit on the left side of the owner, give the "hold" command, hold the object in the right hand, open the dog's mouth with the left hand, put the object into the dog's mouth, and then support the dog's lower jaw with the right hand. In the early stage of training, after the dog holds it for a few seconds, the "spit" command can be issued, the object will be taken out, and a reward will be given. After repeated training for many times, you can perform "title" and "spit" training according to the command. On this basis, the ability to pick up thrown objects and deliver items is further developed, so that the dog can be trained to have the ability to identify and covert pick ups.

When training to pick up thrown objects, it should be combined with gestures (the right hand points to the object to be picked up). When the dog holds the object, it can give the "come" command, and reward it after spitting out the object. If the dog does not come with the title, you should use the training rope to control it and make the dog come
