Do what she likes, if she likes walking, then walk her! Some dogs don't like to play with toys and stuff like that. I'm not sure if you're wanting to "condition" her or what...if you are, then don't worry about it until she's a lot older. For now just light walks and running in the yard is alright...

some puppies dont like toys my pup would rather have an old boot then any toy. and you also have to think that it is a pup they eat sleep and ****, let her be a pup imo

If she's only 3 months old just let her be a puppy.She'll come around when the time is right.

I have one dog that's like that. He chase the ball for 3 to 4 times and then quits and is crushing the ball. The same with other things, but when he smels something wild like a rabbit or mouse he will get crazy. That's the only time when he gets tired. He digs for them as long he can. He is now about 4 years and is a bit lazy.
harlie was that way to...i got a laser lite and i can get her to chase that for about 45 mins at a time she will rest a min then right back at chasing it she goes.....i like making her go around in circles until she falls over being dizzy...funny as heck....lol

Be carefull if you give her a boot because it might show her that she can chew all your foot wear. Have you tried pig ears? or hooves? to get my holly to start playing the vet suggested to get a pig hoove and put a little peanut butter in the middle, It sends them a sent that they will love. after two weeks or so we stopped the peanut butter, and she still was attached to the hoove because the smell sticks to it.
