Shy Gene
Neither my old boy (who recently died) or my new boy (at 4 months) has the shy gene at all.
Both are/were outgoing pups. I think it all about socialization early on.
My first boy went to puppy school and had to play with lab and retriever pups twice his size. My second boy is out and about with us when we go to our boat and cottage. Lots of dogs around. He's normally the first to make overtures, but he's been a bold boy from the start.
