I have the Avery Power Hunter. It's not what you want though. A great blind, but not comfortable and it doesn't have room for a dog door.

Hunter to Hunter secret: Get a kindergarten or exercise mat to set either in the floor of your blind or underneath it between the ground and the blind. This provides extra padding and warmth, plus they roll/fold flat so you can carry them in your blind in and out of the field. They are cheaper than the Avery or other brands cabelas sells.

I have three Finishers and I like them alot....had two of them for over 5 years and still in great shape. as far as the dog goes mine lays next to me in the blind, but if you have a real bug lab it may be kind crowded. My lab weight around 70lbs.

Avery does make some bigger blinds now though.

check out gooseview's layout blinds. I have the xterminator and it is a great blind, i have a couple of FA layout blinds, but they dont compare to the comfort, ease of set-up/take down, or the waterproofing. they come with backpack straps and cost around $200

Well, I ended up buying an Avery Migrator M-2 from Rogers and I really like it so far. I can fit my lab at the foot and training has started out pretty good. The real test will come Sept 1st! Thanks for all the recommendations!
