He is training a yellow lab.

Plus, if you use a pigeon or crow on a pointer for retrieving, how often will you actually come across one of them in the brush while hunting upland birds like pheasant, quail, and patridge? I have yet to have a dog flush a crow or pigeon while we are out upland hunting.
