just wanted to see if anyone has had any expierience hunting with or training pointing labs?
My dog Grace is from Trieven Sungold Kennels out of Lovell, Wyoming. She is a 53 pound black lab from their pointing lab line. I have at least five friends who have dogs from the same kennel. They are wonderful dogs. Pleasant, calm around the house, good looking, travel extemely well, and just generally great family pets. But when they get out hunting, they are all business, with great hunting instinct and an intelligence level that is quite impressive. And I mean it when I say they can cover ground like any dog alive, and do it all day. I can't say enough about them.
My girl doesn't really point, heck I didn't train her for it and I couldn't care less if she does. But some of the other dogs my friends hunt point exceptionally well. My buddy Steve has a bitch named Katie who will hold point for minutes at a time.
I am definately getting another black lab female from that Kennel when Grace turns 7 or 8.
They have a good website. Check it out.
I went to the wesslepointer sight, my question is what are the labradors crossed with. There own site says there is no Griffon, Wirehaired, Drathaar or Pudel in a wessle pointer. So my question is what is in them that will give them there good pointing and excellent noses??
They look like there good dogs, but there website is vague and dosent have much information on the breed.
they sure are alot of fun! my pup is 8 months old and seeing him locked up was a pleasant surprise! I bought him knowing there was pointing in his lines but I wasnt expecting him to really do it, how does one refine this ability? or is this just natural?
