Good advice from John and Chuck. I've been lucky with Labs in the sense that I never got a palooka (although we all know that generally the owner makes the dog). With my current Jake I knew that he would be my last dog because of my age. I scouted for field experience and fortunately there's a kennel fairly close to home owned by a duck and geese hunter, former Ducks Unlimited worker, and dog trainer. I'm living out my years with a champ, bird dog through and through. Choosing a dog is serious business!
