Start small again and build up, Hes had his confindince knocked try not to rush him..

 

So if i was you id go back to basics and let his confindinces build back up

The dog is only a pup, dont force it all it takes is time and patience, he is still growing and developing and you can do more harm to his joints by forceing it to jump, walk before you run

agree with all of the advice but would add to stay clear of the fence or type of fence that he hurt himself on
