Training a dog to hunt sheds

I am looking to get into shed hunting, and have for a while. I have heard many people talk about training pups, but what about older dogs? Is it like birds, where early exposure is key to success. Thanks in advance.

I know a couple of guys that trained 2 year old dogs as shed dogs. One was not even a hunting dog.
That said, I am getting ready to work on a 18 month old GWP I rescued to find sheds....
Go online and google shed hunting dogs... will really give you a lot of info.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.
Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.
