ANyone that says that (at least some) labs don't point is as uninformed and ignorant as they are close minded.......

Maybe last fall when I lost track of where my dog was while following the other dog that looked birdy and came back to find him FIVE MINUTES later locked up on a hen pheasent he was "just pausing"

Maybe he was "jusdt pausing when he struck this pose while airing at a hunt test, he "just paused" long enough to allow me to walk back to the camper and get teh camara, BTW, the bird was 30-40 upwind in the ditch alond side where we were camping......





And oh yeah, labs won't hold a point when they actually see the bird either.....




I took him into the bird pen to work on OB under distraction, and he locked up as soon as we got n the door

you know you guys that don't believe labs point are my favorite to hunt with, last time I hunted with one I won about 80 bucks, first it was ten bucks that labs don't point, then it was double or nothgin that he would not have as many points as the GSPs we were hunting with, then double or nothging that he was pointing a hot spot because"my dog just ran throgh there". then it was double or nothing when a hen flushed from under his nose AND HE DIDN"T BUDGE that there was not another bird there, I was grinning ear to ear when I put the rooster in my pouch...... Of course having to buy the beer that night I did not coem out with as much cash, but that guy is a believer.
