If patting my hand doesn't work, he pats the toy and then looks in the direction he anticipates I'll toss it. Sometimes he catches me tossing it in the opposite direction.

Just now I 'faked' tossing it. I think he's caught on to that trick.

Honestly, he get so much enjoyment out of the chase and retrieval, and it does give him LOTS of exercise. I'll just have to limit the sessions.
