Robert Milner Hunting Lab Training 1985

I do not own a lab. I own a german shorthair and a Braque du Bourbonnais (pointing dogs). I hunt upland birds so I decided on pointers. But I grew up with labs. My dad hunted waterfowl a lot and some upland. I remember way back in the day my dad gave me my first 20ga shotgun. I think I was one of the few 10yr olds that owned one and hunted. My dad grew up with labs and stuck to this breed up until recently (his last one died two years ago and he retired hunting and is now enjoying life with mom and traveling the world). Anyway while visiting my parents in CT I found this old VHS tape from 1985. We watched it and although it pertains to labs I found it very interesting. I thought some of you w/hunting labs might also. Its really old and a bit damaged but fun to watch. It brought back memories of High School for me and good ol hunting memories for my dad. Enjoy.

Thanks for the video. Would a German shorthaired pointer be a good dog for duck hunting?

He has done a lot of great work. His books are very useful in training a good working retriever.
