Ball Obsessed Goldendoodle
By Norman Taylor (2/13/06)
We have an 18-month old male goldendoodle who has become obsessed with balls when he goes to the dog run. If he gets a hold of a ball at the dog run, he will not play with the other dogs - he just lies down and chews on the ball. When I try to get the ball from him (either to get him to run around or because the owner wants it back), he barks at me (while still holding the ball in his mouth - it's quite a feat) and runs away. I used to be able to get him to drop it by offering him a really good treat, but even that no longer works.
