This is how we all did it today when out in the park.
Auntie Breeze being a Border Collie goes for the run out and then 'claps'. Basically she runs out drops down and then waits for it to be thrown.
Dare also is a Border Collie but he has a very strong Collie eye. So he keeps staring at the boss until the ball is thrown and he then thinks he gets it because he has been staring so hard...
Being an English Shepherd and obviously expect the tennis ball to be thrown for me so first I look at the boss expectantly standing close to it.
And if that doesn't work I make it more obvious to them what I am after.
Of course Chip being a Patterdale Terrier always makes it very obvious what he wants...

To each his/her own, I suppose!
Chip looks like he could be the bouncing ball on a sing-along video! :) Too cute.
When Riley wants her ball to be thrown, she just keeps dropping it in your lap if you're sitting down or at your feet if you're standing up outside. She'll drop it time and time again until you "FINALLY" get the hint and throw it for her...crazy girl!

Well, we think you and Chip are on to something. Maybe you should combine your techniques. Paw on the ball, then bark and leap, repeat:)

Dogs are like people in the way that everyone is different. Whichever way they look at the ball there is no doubting what they want.
You all have unique characters, I love you all.
All of you are very expressive, and show exactly what you want to happen to that ball!
