Got me a pointing Lab

Is it a pup or a started dog? A well-trained and talented pointing Labrador can point with style, remain intense and remain staunch. They can hold a point as long as necessary, with minutes ticking by. They can back and honor the work of another pointing dog. They can be very steady to wing and shot, and they can retrieve darn near anything, anywhere it lands. Do they come out of the womb this way or in the first year or two of their lives? No. It takes good genes, talent and a trainer who knows how to balance two somewhat different ideas about training and dogs.
Good luck! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
