Force Fetching Retrievers is difficult, especially when you lack experience.
When a dog does not respond, do you need to apply more pressure, less pressure, ease up on requirements, shorten the session, or perhaps bear down and keep trying until he gets it? Even experienced trainers can find it hard to read a dog that is doing nothing. Last issue we spent time talking with David Lauber, regarding the introduction of young dogs to gunfire during fieldwork. This issue we will continue our talk, but step back a bit and talk about establishing a strong quartering pattern before shooting over the dog and eventually steadying a young spaniel. A covey rise of prairie chickens flushing fast, chuckling and flashing their fanned tail feathers is a wild western wing shooting adventure for sure. All gun shy dogs are man made. While some dogs may be more prone to becoming gunshy, it is not a genetic flaw.
Some dogs are more sensitive and this can make them more “likely” to become gunshy. Even the boldest of pups can become gunshy if the introduction to the gun is not handled correctly. The following method works fine with pointers, flushers, and retrievers. While I start all my pups using these techniques, this method will work with any age dog that needs conditioning to guns and gunfire. There are several things that you should NEVER, EVER do to a young dog. Many young dogs become gunshy from things that are out of the owners control or unknown to the owner. It’s best to get started on gunfire and noise introduction as soon as possible. I start mine the day they get to my house.
Getting Started It’s great if your breeder has already started the introduction but you never want to assume that they have. We always raised our litters in the laundry room. This starts their life with a series of doors opening and closing and washing machines and dryers running. We also always have a radio going in the background. This gives them exposure to many noises, voices, music and loud and blaring commercials. My dad always said the best dogs were raised on “Country and Western” music, but I’ll leave that up to you. I make as much “noise” around my young pups as possible.
Start out slow and build up. When I am around my pups, I clap my hands, clang food bowls, open and close my truck and dog box doors. Start out quiet and build up. Always watch your dog and see if or how he reacts. I prefer that the pup be moving around out in the open having fun. I want the noises to be part of his normal routine. I go out of my way to be as loud as I can over time.
I want him to be well adjusted to any sudden noise. The best way to do this is to have a regular series of noises going on. Again, start slow and build up. Seeing the Gun as a Positive Thing Many dogs that become gun shy are not only afraid of the sound of the gun, they are also afraid of the sight of the gun. This happens when the first time a dog sees a gun is also the first time he hears one. He puts two and two together and makes a break for it the next time you take your shotgun out of its case.
I like for my young dogs to see guns on a regular basis as part of the routine. Feeding time is a great opportunity for this. I have young kids so I don’t like to leave my guns lying around. In place of a real shotgun, I use an old daisy “Pop” gun. It looks like a shotgun and it even makes a good pop noise when I cock and fire it. I carry one around on walks in the field and during feeding time.
This allows my pup to SEE a gun in a positive way and for it to become a normal part of his world. Introduction to Birds See 3 min. Before we start with actual gunfire, we need to get started on birds. The best way to get a young dog going is to “seed” an open field with a few game birds. I prefer quail but pigeons or chukars will work. Take your young dog out and let him find, bump, flush and chase these birds.

Your pup needs to see you with your gun while he is “hunting” and finding birds. This helps with the positive association. After you have done this a few trips and your pup is now “hunting” for birds when you take him out, you can add gunfire. This gets him thinking birds and guns, guns and birds. This is correct association that we want. My dogs love guns and gunfire because they know they go with birds. Adding in the Gunfire Once your pup is good and “bird” crazy, you can start adding gunfire.
Don’t worry about him pointing or flushing birds or any other advanced training. You need him to be as “bird crazy” as possible.

When he finds your first planted bird, let the chase begin. As soon as the bird is in flight and the pup is in full chase, signal your helper to fire one shot. I lift my hat off my head and hold it high in the air. Watch your pup for any reaction. As long as he keeps going full blast you can continue. If he stops and looks around don’t make a big deal out of it. Keep on walking and find the next bird.

Let him flush this one without any gunfire. I also like to keep a bird on me so I can flush one from my vest if he needs a little distraction. As long as he has no reaction to the gunfire, keep adding it in as he flushes birds. Slowly move the blank gun in closer and closer over time. Keep moving the gun in until you are firing the gun at your side as he finds and bumps the birds. After you can do this, start over with the louder CCI Short crimps and the much louder Winchester . Start at a distance and move in slowly.

After you can fire the gun yourself when the pup is close to you chasing his birds, you can move up to a small gauge shotgun.
