I'm not sure if this is the right place for this thread but with so many hunters and service dogs here goes...
We are bringing home a pup soon (sweet shelter pup just over 6 months old we think) and would like him to be comfortable around the sound of gunfire or at least be familiar enough with it to not be frightened. We have a friend who lets us shoot at his outdoor range and this little guy will be with us enjoying some time outside and sniffing around in the woods. I want to protect his hearing but have no idea where to start. He and I will likely be 100 yards away from the range when the boys are plinking.
