I have a lab that is right at 2 years old, and have had him since he was about 4 months old (rescued him from a shelter). He has yet to go out shooting or hunting with me, but I would like to get him into it, as I am getting more into hunting and into more kinds of hunting. I'll admit that he is babied by his mom (my fiancee) but he is still a well behaved and disciplined dog and knows sit, down, stay and most of the time knows back (our version of whoa). Too late to start? I'm sure an e-collar is needed, so any opinions would help.

Thanks
