    Seems to have a good nose on her, winding the goats across the road from the balcony at the mo.
    Will get a rifle out and see her reaction.

    My girl was like that for a while. She even hid under the house for 3 hours when mates lad fired a slug gun. I didn't force the issue, and she eventually realised that the gun was not going to hurt her. She is now 100% gun proof.
    Give it time

    I used a dog once that was given to my mate that was gun shy.
    She would tolerate a gun to a point and she actually gave very positive indication of a Deer ahead - as she would suddenly sleek in behind you and you knew there was Deer just forward of you.
    She also was not bad enough to run away when fired - but just did not like it.
    A big positive with her was she never got the GSP whines and tremors of excitement that some do when they know something about to be bowled over.
    She was like a cat in the bush.

    So - yea as you said give her time and leave a few fired cases around her sleeping area - gun oil etc
    Dogs that are slightly timid - generally make good dogs and are easier to train - if you not push them to hard to begin with

    Good luck
