My lab came from a back ground with a Kellogg pedigree,was funny when I got him at 8 weeks he pointed right away to a bird in the brush when i got home and let him run in our yard,i was excited about getting Sam and forgot about the Kellogg in his back ground but now he is eight and he just likes being over water or out in the field,never really trained him like I should of but he is what he is...A Good all around bird dog and best friend(nxt to the wife and children of coarse).....
