ORIGINAL: Red Hawk
I decided to put this topic under both the South Forum and Sporting dog because i figured I would get good suggestions, thoughts, cripes, etc etc on both. I'll be moving to Eastern Texas early next year and I want to get a dog sometime. I was thinking about either a German Short Haired or a Lab. but not having been there in awhile, I don't really know all what is out there in terms of upland birds. Out of the two, what would be the best breed to get? I also plan to go duck hunting as well in the future. Thanks in advance
Somewhat depends on what you are going to be primarily hunting and what (when waterfowling) the water temps will be. Either a German Wirehair or a Pointing Lab sound the bet so far-- but it depends on your answers to my questions as to whether I'd suggest a GSP or not.
