Sounds like he is retrieving because he wants to, not because he has to. I have a border collie that has passed a seasoned HRC test. Talk about sensitive. It can still be fun, but he has to know that whenever you say bring he must bring it all the way. You need to force fetch to teach him hold so he won't drop it. And then I'd have a long 100ft line on him . Make him bring it all the way by using the rope to give him cues, but also repeating the command over and over( attrition). Start at 0ft and work distance slowly and only when he has it down at short distance. Bill Hillman is a great resource for teaching sensitive dogs in a fun way, I used him a lot. Pm me with any questions.

Stop throwing a ball or frisbee, make him retrieve what you want him to or not at all. Also you can take a small wing or peice of wing and tape it to a bumper. That way it is easy to hold, but he starts to get more use to feathers. Make the goose wing a play thing (like the frisbee at home) that way he associates it with fun and play. Not force fetch. Then after he loves it start to force fetch him on it.

I do have a wing zip tied to a bumper. he does great with that. it is mostly just issues with the bare wings.

I would suggest getting with an accomplished trainer and having them help you. You need to understand how to properly collar condition the dog and then force fetch once that's complete. Learning how to run a collar is very important. I do not suggest trying to force fetch the dog yourself. thanks, that is what I was told by someone else and so up to this point I hadn't ventured into those waters due to my lack of experience and mostly time. Bad part is all my aqaintances that know dogs live in Missouri. this dog is in GA and the budget for training is at the book or DVD level, not a pro trainer.

Carry your dog out to a place let it out and give it a couple of free retrieves then bring it back make it sit throw a bumper do not let it go until you give it the command. Should it refuse put it up let it think about it for awhile repeat this a few times see if that helps 🤙
I am drinking from my saucer cause my cup has overflowed. Thank you Lord
