How can we wein our dog from chasing a ball, he has a bad back, but loves to chase the ball. So how do we wein him from this, he needs rest and relaxazation but still looks for the ball all day long ...
LindaRuth good advice...I would take the ball away totally and give him other toys that don't roll. Has your vet checked out his back issues? For sure if he can walk a little walks will let him explore new sights and smells to peek his interest.
