Just wondering if there are any retriever clubs in or around olympia washington. Just started hunting pheasants and ducks lasting year. I have a chocolate that I have been training for about a year. He's doing pretty dang good at retrieving considering how green i am... but the upland bird hunting I am confused. How do I get him to stop chargeing the peasants and start locking up? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Most Labs are Flushers (yours is, by what you describe). A very few are Pointing Labs.
If your dog is not out of Pointing Lab ancestry,it will never Lock Up. Pointing is genetic, and not something that you train.
