Over all the pup probably needs to be force fetched, in the mean time to build desire back, you can try more enticing things such as small birds, flapping pigeons, etc

Try a squeaky toy or paint roller. Get him excited. Make a fool out of yourself getting him jacked up.
Good luck,, He'll be fine just try everyday.

Angie Agreed. Just say something like pupupup in a really excited voice. My lab goes nuts when I do that with fun bumpers.

Angie I used a tennis ball and they went absolutely nuts chasing that ball around. I would bounce the ball and away they go.....
