everyone here said it all.FORGET hunting and teach what they said above.after he/she has learned that the hunting will come natural.take flashlight, those million power rechargeable ones.use SPROULS training method go to school or some other place that has LOTS of rabbits.rabbits like to come out at night more than day and you will see lots.take spotlight and put it on rabbit.have your lab on leash.say,SIT.AFTER HE SITS ,say RABBIT and let him off leash.keep the light on rabbit as your dog chases it.

few times and he will hunt.after you flush a pheasant or grouse, say BIRD.AFTER 2 yrs your lab will know difference between rabbit/bird when you say that word.

SPROULS TRAINING ADVICE is best you will ever get and no shock collar will ever be needed.
