English pointer, gsp, gwp, american brittany, french brittany, English setter, irish setter, Gordon setter, visla, griffon, etc. But I will say if you're a waterfowler, it's a great breed. Congrats on yours. Please use it. Last edited by Jackson_Handy; 04/15/21.

I've had Beagles, Plotts, Blueticks, Airedales, GSD's, Rottweilers and several mixed breed mutts but never a Lab. Nothing against them. Just never really cared to have one. ,

I've lived in a more-or-less continuous Lab world since for 50+ years, though the first belonged to my major hunting mentor. Got my first at 20, and except for a few months here and there, have never been without one since--often more than one. Beautiful dog and photo.

America breeders have changed the Labrador so much that an American Lab needs a different category than the original English type of Labrador.

Both are great pups though!

Happiest dog we have ever had.Hell on rabbits,squirrels,but not a hunter.Only a great house, family dog, and wife protector. With me it's every man for himself. She sleeps in the middle of our king size bed, fights me for her place on the sofa.. My wife calls her a velcro dog because she is always at her side. Big difference from our last dog, a blue heeler.. If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles

Buddy raises them, English style, imported semen, hardcore hunting stock, priced her at $2400. Told him we only wanted one, not the whole litter.... Wife ended up getting a stinking golden doodle mutt. Calmest dog Ive been around. I’m going to do my best to make it a field retriever. Retrieving tennis balls with enthusiasm right now.
