Anyway when she got home with the dog I found out it was a bright, bright white lab. She's turned a little yellow on the edges but for the most part she looks like a polar bear.

This is bs. Lots of guys hunt with light yellow labs - it's not an issue. Even without a camo vest, this just isn't an issue.

Secondly, I've been trying to figure out ways to get a dog out to where I hunt and I've pretty much come to the conclusion that almost all the places I hunt are not conducive to having a dog with me.

Then you have to decide if you like having your dog with you enough to find spots that ARE conducive to bringing a dog. She could help a lot in the marsh too fwiw. Even if you don't hunt there most of the time, you may find that once you do hunt with her in the marsh that you make more of an effort to hunt places that you can bring her. It's a totally different level of enjoyment to the hunt.

I disagree. My buddy hunts with a pretty much White Lab and we hunt some spots that we have to set him on a Avery stand. We try like hell to get in good cover where they can't see him but our hunts tend to suffer when we take him. At first I was like you, not an issue, but after several seasons, it has become a pattern. They don't exactly flare, they just tend to work weird and not commit.
