How do I teach my dog how to target the ball when using a ball on a string?

Full Question:
Do you have any training or suggestions to train my dog how to go for the ball and not the rope when using the ball on a rope toy? I have a Rottweiler with a huge toy drive. I would like to use the ball on the rope as a training aid for reward when training him. Right now, he keeps going after the rope and not the ball. I purchased the ball on a rope with the handle at the end from your site. I was hope you can point me in the right direction. Thanks.

If you haven’t already done so, I’d recommend Power of Playing Tug and Advanced Concepts of Motivation. We also have a short video on the website that may help.
