Labs Don't Really Point -- Do They ?

Here is a pic of Scarlet. Scarlet is my dog's daughter.
Scarlet lives in MN and will be the mom of our next pup.

Great looking girl Doc.

That is a pretty picture, and even better when you are there to see it.

My Lab also points and is great to watch

O no labs dont point at all. thats why there are several kennels across the nation that specialize in pointing labs.

That is a good looking dog and good looking point.

Now that is a point. My Lab points but nothing like that. I call it "Locking up on the bird" because it is not a true point, I then send him in to flush the bird. Doc doyou send yours in to flush the bird? I did not even know they pointed until mine did quail hunting 2 years ago. So this pointing thing is new to me, but it is cool to watch.

That's a beauty of a pic, good looking dog!

Well I have a 2 year old Black Lab mixed with a Sapniel and he is starting to point when I come home in the morning and now i'm thinking about taking him out bird hunting do you have any Techniques you could hand down??
