You do not need to convince Renn the Corgi to have fun with fetch. You just need his ball launcher. In an adorable, fun Instagram video from @rennsportcorgi, the happy dog races around the yard, chasing the ball as if he has discovered the greatest invention of his life. He waits with his eyes on the launcher, springing up with excitement. Then, he chases after the ball the second it flies, eventually bringing it right back for another round and doing it all over again.
Owner reveals Corgi plays fetch without any breaks as soon as he sees ball launcher
The video’s on-screen text states the obvious with, “Why is this SO fun.” Renn’s owner admitted in the caption that the toy turned into much more than an occasional treat, writing, “I thought this would be a fun once in a while toy…but apparently I’ve unlocked a full-time job.” They added, “The second he sees the ball launcher, it’s over. No breaks. Just fetch. forever.”
In the video, the Corgi looks thrilled throughout, with his fluffy body bouncing as he enthusiastically waits for the ball launcher to do its job.
Fetch taps right into a dog’s chase instinct, and the launcher adds even more excitement because the ball goes farther and faster than a normal throw — so for a Corgi like Renn, that means the reward just keeps coming.
His owner also joked that the fun is not one-sided. In the caption, they wrote, “And honestly… why is it kinda fun for me too?? The satisfaction of launching it just right… watching him sprint like his life depends on it… immediate return… repeat.”
Viewers undeniably loved it just as much. One person wrote, “Haha this is great!” while another added, “Omg so fun!!” And judging by Renn’s reaction, the game does seem like the most fun one can have.
By the end of the clip, the Corgi was having great fun with the ball launcher. And his owner may have accidentally signed up for one too many shifts of playing fetch — but not to worry, because they seem to be having fun, too.
