I have not been on the site for awhile but I am considering picking up a hunting companion. I think I am decided on a good lab pup that would be used primarily as a companion and upland hunter. I would not rule out duck and geese but for now the main purpose will be for pheasant and a buddy around the house. I am in Rochester, MN (I am willing to make a day trip to pick the pup up) and looking for a good dog with good lines in its history. Basically, I want a good dog with good lines at a fair price. Any opinions are appreciated and a bargain would be great. I thank you in advance.

www.legendgundogs.com . Larry does an awesome job with British Labs. I have had mine now for two years and could not be more pleased with her as a family dog and as a hunter (Absolute machine in cattails!!!). Very easily trained and listens extremely well. Great family dog also! I am in Inver Grove Heights if you ever would like to take a look at her...RR

Give Jerry Sather a call at Labs Unlimited. Be sure to let him know that Francis sent you.
I believe he has a couple of liters in progress.
Good luck with your decision.

Thanks for the help guys. I have looked at the two suggestions mentioned and they seem great. Yesterday, I ran acrossed a guy in Wisconsin who has some pups with 3 national titles in the blood line. The titles are from ebonstar lean mac and the others are out of the candlewood kennel. If everything checks out I may go with him. I also looked at High Brass Kennels in Benson, MN. Any other info would still be appreciated though. Thank you!
