That brings me to the subject of the pointing lab. I work my dogs at towers shoots when I can to get them some work. One of the fellows breed his bitch with a pointing Lab and keep one of the pups. I invited him to come work his dog on our next game farm hunt but he had a prior commitment. New thoughts on this after 10 years
That is your buddies fault, then. All of the dd's and GWP I have hunted have been well mannered. Mine will whimper when I haven't released on a downed bird, but besides that he does decent. The versatile dogs are amazing dogs, that are strong on everything. Mine has pointed and retrieved pheasant. Retrieved ducks, and tracked deer. And is a great babysitter, and protector. He will go nuts to get a squirrel. His only downfall is cats, and dominant dogs. He will kill a cat in a hurry. He is great with dogs unless one tries to be boss over him. I'd look at the GWP, DD, WPG, or PP. If you want a do all dog.

“… duckhunting stands alone as an outdoor discipline. It has a tang and spirit shared by no other sport—a philosophy compounded of sleet, the winnow of unseen wings, and the reeks of marsh mud and wet wool. No other sport has so many theories, legends, casehardened disciples and treasured memories.”
--John Madson, The Mallard, 1960
"Never trust a duck hunter who cares more about his success than his dog's."
