[swampdogg]

Need some advice. My boy wants a dog, being 6 ol'dad will be taking care of HIS dog. I figure that I might as well get some use out of it. I just took up waterfowl hunting, dove hunt when I won't get peppered idioits, quail hunt if I can find them. My thoughts are choc. or yellow lab. Big enough to rough house with the boy, but not a horse. fairly short hair to keep the wife happy on the cleaning subject. Never had much interaction with labs, but they seem like a good family dog. Any advice would be welcome. P.S. Also heard they can be trained to point any info.on that would be helpful.
