Max is my 2 year old pointing lab. He is a lean 70lb ball of muscle. Took him out to South Dakota and hunted him hard for 4 days and he never slowed down. He is a pointing and retrieving machine. My only complaint would be he is a lot more hard headed than my setters in the past have been. I have yet to lose a downed bird in the last 2 years though so i guess i can put up with that. We jumped the mallard in the picture off a pond in SD and barely winged it. It swam under a mound od mud and cattails. Went back and let the dogs out to retieve the ducks, wish i had a camera with me, he locked up and pointed the mallard from 15 ft away and held it until i released him. Not your typical water retrieve, but it worked
