Some dogs just don't take to fetch naturally but I did manage to teach Daisy (sort of!) using a few treats and her favorite squeaky toy. But sometimes she just gets fed up and prefers to lay down and chew the ball!!

If you have two frisbees you could throw one, and then show him the second one whilst telling him to "Fetch" (or whatever word you want to use).
Another way is to start with something simple ( a toy, a dumbell etc), get your dog to sit in front of you (on lead) & offer the toy. As soon as he takes the toy, say "Fetch" and gently hold his chin so he doesn't drop it. Then tell him "Leave" and take the toy.
Then, once he's good at that, give him the toy, and move one step backwards, telling him to sit. Stand still for a few seconds and then say "Fetch" and gently pull him to you & get him to sit again. Then take the toy.
Gradually build up the distance until you can leave the lead off. Then you can try throwing the toy & saying "Fetch" and hopefully he'll have learned by then that fetch means to bring the toy to you.
