Hilarious!

Willi, out of curiosity, by playing this game with him, would a dog,
particularly a retriever, learn to equate the motion of casting with this
fun "let me go get that tennis ball" game, thus making it impossible to
bring him fishing (actual fishing that is!) with you?

Yes and quickly! But, although it would be more difficult, you could
also teach them when it was a "game" and when you were fishing.

Susan uses a tennis racket to whollop tennis balls for the dogs to
retrieve. If I brought a few of my dogs to a tennis meet, it wouldn't be
a pretty sight but it would be humorous!
