Having owned labs and now having a GSP, do not expect just a faster, slimmer, short-haired lab!
GSPs are wonderful family dogs, tons of energy. Mine has calmed down at 4 years old and is wonderful with our newborn.
Hunting: the only problem I have is keeping him still while in the duck blind. he had a lot of trouble during force fetch which Ankther poster talked about. You hace to use other means of training other than constant pressure. If you are getting a male, establish yourself early or he will take over as pack leader. (I know, trite, but worth mentioning.) we called mine "violator when he was little because that bastard wanted to hump everything.

1.u less your yard is county sized - don't expect a curious, energetic and motivated gsp to stay in it.
2. Whatever fencing can keep most dogs in- is a mere speed bump for a gsp or ep
3. Note afield where a lab on an upland hunt slows down and tires about an hour into
Most gsp or ep are just getting loose
