[quote=Anonymous]I have a Labradinger - he was a rescue and we didn't know his breed until we had him DNA tested.  He is a fantastic dog, very affectionate and has progressed really well at training classes, working his way up to the gold level.

Ollie (my dog) was around 2 when we got him and he was quite wild, he calmed down pretty quickly once he had a good routine.  He gets on with other dogs, but isn't interested in playing with others as he is very hunt orientated.  He is alert the entire time he is out on walks looking for things to chase - he has caught a couple of pigeons, a squirrel and a rabbit, so if you are squeamish this isn't the dog for you.

Ollie is a very handsome boy, with many people thinking he is a Labrador puppy as he looks like a short Lab.  He loves human company and will work for treats and affection.  He has done well in gun dog training, working trials and agility, but he has to be kept busy.  He needs far more exercise than my full breed Labrador and will work all day, I am always exhausted well before he is.

Ollie is good with kids, but he doesn't like his space to be invaded so is less tolerant than our Labrador.  As long as children know not to crowd him there has never been a problem.

Over all Ollie is a fantastic dog and this type of dog will keep you very fit indeed!!

Good luck and enjoy if you get one.[/quote]
