Going to be picking up a new dog tomorrow. It's my brother in laws 3 year old yellow lab. They have four dogs and I think want to have kids soon so they are trying to thin down the dog herd. We are trying her out for a week to see how it goes but if it's between the wife and the dog I'm keeping the dog. I've never trained a dog to hunt but I'm looking forward to it. She will be mostly used on waterfowl hunts but I want to take her pheasant hunting a couple times to see how she does.
