I currently have two and have had three. I had to have my first one put down a couple years ago. Great dogs. Probably be the only hunting breed I ever own in the future. Who are you getting yours from? Addictedtohunting on here is a breeder.

that's a great pic right there. I've been reading and watching everything I can find on this breed and love what I'm seeing. I live in an area with great hunting for Huns quail and pheasants,and plenty of duck waters also..im pretty excited

Congrats!!  I have a male named Doug and the breed is really pretty special.  Full-On!  and oh so sweet, he would literally jump into my pocket if he could.  He is so affectionate.  They are really something else.  You will not regret it, that's for sure.  I have a pointing lab too....started with the versatile lab that points.  Doesn't point worth a damn but he is the quintessential lab, I'd say.  A good hunter in his own right.  Hunting with a flusher and a pointer is really fun.  The PP came after when my trainer turned me on to the breed.  Her first PP was from Bodo himself.  I probably would have for-gone the lab had I got the PP first.  They are great!  There is a lot of personal preference but I did wait until i was able to get short coated one...the long haired, woolly ones do pick up the stickers and are dirt magnets....but if you are heavy into water-fowling the thick coats will certainly help with warmth.  Either way, send pictures when you have one picked out!  Very exciting!

I have never owned one but I have hunted behind a few and been around a ton of them in NAVHDA. They are an awesome breed. I think that you have made a great choice and that you will be super happy to have such a cool breed!  :tup:

You had better share some puppy pics!
Lead em if they're running.

Thank you rasbo. I got mine from marshland gun dogs out of MN.  Tony Bezenar is his name and he bumped me up his list (or so he says) to expand his foot print and get some of his dogs out of the Midwest.  Doug does have a little bit of an over bite but other than that he’s exactly what I was hoping for. :tup:  Not sure how big a hurry your in but I’d vouch for Tony and spring(MarchIsh pickup) pups are awesome.

I don’t personally train them from the ground up.  That said, if I had the time to really pour into the little guy I would follow the richard wolters books.  Gun dog and/or Water Dog.  Julie knutson’s training the pointing lab is another good one.

I think having a trainer getting their hands on them when they are so young is very important for the long hall in creating a good foundation. “You are a working dog and not a cuddly couch potato”.  That said, going about it your self with live birds (a lot of them) is totally doable.  It’s easy to over think it, it really is about having a ball with them and enjoying the process.  I just didn’t have the time or the expertise at the time.

I’m glad I did it...I definitely missed out on prime puppy time but it sure does help.  They are absolute sponges from 7 weeks old to first few months of age.  A skilled trainer can really cement some good stuff in there.  I would say a min of 2 months in all honesty.

You're not going to get much if you send a puppy to a trainer (comments mention from 7 weeks to few months of age). Just sign up for some local obedience classes and focus on basic socialization. At about 6 months, after the pup has adult teeth you can think about sending it to a pro to do formal obedience, force fetch, and collar conditioning.
