RE: How are GSP's in cold water?
my 10month old Chocolate lab so far has been the best pointing dog i have been around, excellent natural ability in bird hunting. I really love GSPs but for cold water I worry about one. While I was loading up afterhunting grouse by the streammy Allie just busted the water wide open and this is with air temp around 27-30 degrees F. She was dry in no time, close to dry by the next place i unloaded and she absolutely loved it. As much as I love bird dogs the lab is just a beast and capable of any job for sporting dogs(even saw them coon hunt before)
