Yes I can help but it takes time and you have to commit, also it is much easier to have a breed of dog that what is called in the dog world as a natural retriever most sporting dogs have this inherated instinct ,like Labs .goldens . some pointing breeds also ,it gives you a leg up ,Most Bird dog breeds are best suited ,Like my Baraque du borbannais.

the bringing( retrieve) to you is the easy part , its getting the beer out of the refrigerator that becomes difficult for a dog ,( opening thing ) the frig door handle is a challenge for a dog ,I found that if I tie a dish towel to the handle it becomes much easier

I apologize to the OP for answring this question so not to change the main subject here Dogs and trucks , you can private message me I I can help you start your training.
