I got my guy from East Harbor Gun Dogs down in the states. He's in Washington great to deal with and my boy is as much as a house dog as he is a hunting machine

I haven't seen her labs. But, I just got my girl (GWP) back from spending approx 6 weeks with Linda. I really liked Linda and her operation. She worked on reinforcing things I had already had my dog doing - and she did a damn nice job of it. She was VERY firm with the dog but treated her well IMO. Very high recommendation from me for training from Linda.
If I were looking for a lab I would certainly give her a call and get her thoughts.

Thanks for all the PMs and advice. I've talked with a short list of recommended breeders and think I have decided on the right one for me. I'm now on a puppy list. Im going to meet with them in Oct and we'll discuss my preferences and expectations and figure out which of the two 2018 litters will be the best match for me.
Who did you go with ....
You will like them.
You will be happy with them. I am familiar with all her dogs, and she has been breeding and raising hunt test/ hunting dogs for a very long time. She breeds working conformation dogs for the most part. My hunting partner has a 6 month old from Tracey. They aren't fire breathers, but they will hunt with the right training and be awesome family pets.

which litter Lorne?
the one with three or the one with 8?
Timber my dog is from Nelson, the one with 3....
he is really stable and super easy to train. I am not as pro a trainer as some here but Timber is almost auto pilot.... you just show him what you want him to do and he does it.
he pulls triple wing retrieves without trying to bring all three in at once all held until I have him sit at heal and tell him to drop.
