GWPguy, Cool story!
The only time my Lab, Sam, embarrassed me was when a hunter in another field at my club's preserve shot a bird over his dog and Sam saw the fall. He broke and took off and I couldn't stop him with a "No". He got that bird, which the hunter was not too happy about. I gave him his bird and apologized. Sam had tons of drive. I probably could have stopped him with a zap from his e-collar but I didn't want to take the chance of curbing his enthusiasm for retrieving.
