Dear Ed,

Please check your e-mail. I can tell you that not ALL Springers are slow working. Also remember that if a dog is too fast, it may miss the bird! Do you want to run after the dog/bird or enjoy the hunt?

Your dog selection depends on your style of hunting. I have a Lab that works fine or me, and I work with members of a club I belong to (springer club) that have dogs I like and some I do not care for.

Good Luck with the Duck!
