Just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself! I'm Victoria and we'll be bringing home our new yellow lab in about 4-5 weeks.
I'm in my 20's, have been deer hunting for quite a few years, but I'm new to any/all bird hunting. This year I'll be able to get out and do some duck hunting here in Michigan, and some upland game in Nebraska. My boyfriend has been hunting waterfowl and upland game his entire life, and normally makes it out to his family hunting shack in Nebraska each fall when his job permits. He's hunted with plenty of dogs before, but this will be a new thing for me.
We're very excited to bring this pup home. He will be first and foremost a pet (and companion on the farm), but we'd both like to have a nice gun dog down the road as well.
I'm looking forward to learning a lot from this forum. We'll have plenty of questions I'm sure
