At 6 months old my dog was flushing and retrieving birds.

My 11 month old cocker seems to have gone backwards, he will get a dummy but seems to lay down and start mouthing it, any help would be appreciated

Describe how good his delivery of dummies was in the past. Have you exposed him to cold game and or shot game ? If so, how did he deliver ? Also, is his delivery sporadic and or does it happen after a number of retrieves ? Forgive my questions but there is a lot of background missing from your problem. :)
