[QUOTE="Petras, post: 226090, member: 216"] This is going to sound like a lot of work, but it worked very well for me. When my dog was just about 3 months old I worked on introducing her to gunshots. What I did was for the first week of training or so, when I put her food down for her evening feeding, I would clap a couple times relaly loud while she ate, after a week or so of this i started taking her out to the country for her evening feeding. I would bring my .22 rifle with, put her food down, walk about 30 or 40 yards away and let a couple rounds fly from the rifle. As the week progressed I slowly worked my way closer to her as I shot the rifle. Once i was able to fire right next to her without her paying any attention to the shots, I switched to my considerably louder .22 pistol and started at about 30 yards and worked closer. Once she was good with the pistol I brought out the 12 gauge and started about 30 yards away again and worked in close. It worked very well. Some may feel it's overkill, but once a dog becomes gun-shy, it's very hard to cure them of it so I made sure to take it nice and slow. [/QUOTE]
