I got my 2 year old lab nearly 1 year ago, he is showing great promise in training on all manner of retrieves, but is gun-shy! Because I have only had him for a year I do not know the source of the problem.

I have read alot about the problem and there are 2 schools of thought - it is either cureable or not!

Does anyone know of any solutions, I have seen de-sensitisation cd's but am sceptical and have been recommended a dog behaviourist but wonder if there is a simpler/chearper solution?

Any help gratefully received!
