It's not quite cut and dried !
Having owned a Wirehair for the last eleven years
And he happens to be my 11 th versatile pointer
with a couple of Labs mixed in . I always feel your
fortunate if you do get a dog that suits your purpose
and lifestyle.
The average Hunter with Familly , job , etc has 3-4
months Hunting dog , 8-9 familly pet dog .
A lab great familly dog , very climate friendly ,
I'm not big on flushing dogs but I have hunted with
some very well trained ones , mostly labs , very
productive ...You could always get a pointing lab .
There are more and more reports about aggressive
behaviour in the versatile breeds .
If a familly is involved you want to get a few references
On the selected breeder .
Also Labs smell bad all the time and the worse farts .
Otherwise enjoy
