i was always told to not let a dog be around the high powered stuff as it will hurt there ears and could push them to gun shy. meaning higher hand guns and high powered rifles?

i know when i was finishing breaking my current chocolate i was up at granit falls (4-5) years ago. he had never spooked till some dip sh&% opened his entire clip in teh ground blind side to us shooting clays took me and the dog and wife by surprise and the dog back to square one to start all over again. 9 months later and he was back to being good but for a while i thought i had lost him gun wise.

i havn't been back to granite falls since was told to go there from a co-worker when we first moved over here.
