Well, I shot down the idea of both the GWP and goldendoodle. I really wanted a dog that would both point and retrieve well. Because we have a lab and German shepherd, I also wanted something a little smaller than either breed. I have owned brittanys in the past and decided adding another would be an excellent choice.
I have found my breeder locally too and have been speaking with them for over a week now! The pups have champion pedigree, the parents AND past siblings hunt, and I was given the pick of the litter. Our pup will be coming home sometime this week.
