I'll add that probably the most productive gun dog I've ever seen was a big built female GSP rescue from a pound. Suzie probably weighed 75 lbs, but she was a crafty old girl who knew wild rooster pheasant, quail, and creek bottom mallards. Her owner took her everywhere he went, when he wasn't working. And the guy only worked so he could hunt and fish. Not lazy, in the least, but focused on what he considered important

Same guy had 2 of the 3 best GSPs I've ever seen
