Upland (any and all)! Lets See Em!

probably my fav pic of her. I shot this sharptail grouse and I was getting ready to go look for it; the brush was way over her head no way she saw it fall 60 yards from her. Yet here she comes to me with the bird!

Sharptails to woodcock, I’ve chased a lot of birds with my PIC!!
How does the lab work on grouse and huns? I'm trying to figure out the best bird dog for me (mix of waterfowl, prairie birds, and mountain grouse)- and I keep coming back to a smaller female lab.

If a bird smells, he’ll flush and retrieve if you do your part! Huns were a by-product when going after sharpies. He’s a 90lb+ black lab, not exactly made to chase birds in dry, sunny conditions! He’s a powerful swimmer. The first three years of his life, he was awesome at chasing roosters in the prairie!

How about mountain grouse? I basically want a do-all bird dog for mountains, prairies, and rivers.
