I have a male yellow lab myself. After many different breads labs are the only dogs I will own. He is one tough hunting dog. Never skips a beat and is always doing his job! Have had females and will not do that again. If you do not spay them you will have fun with them going into heat. If you do spay them they tend to get fat and lazy. Both my hunting dogs are neutered and are great!! Personally I would think twice about ordering a dog with out seeing it. I have learned that being around them when they are young can tell you alot about there temperment and attitude which is very important in hunting dogs!!!! Good luck with your new dog.
