[QUOTE="NDSportsman, post: 208636, member: 444"] So I lost my hunting buddy last October and am starting the search for a new one. Can't see myself bird hunting without a dog again, it's just not the same. My old Mack was a rescued black lab that adopted me and taught me more than I ever taught him. I've been checking out the rescue places but labs are hard to come by and get adopted pretty fast so haven't had much luck that route. I'm thinking of going with a started or finished dog since I'm not sure I can handle the puppy stage again and just don't have enough time to dedicate to training. Wondering what everyone's experience has been going this route, what to look out for, maybe some leads on trainers with dogs available. Looking mainly for a lab and would like to stay within ND/SD/MN area but I'm open to other options. TIA [/QUOTE]
