What are the pro's/con's as you see them with the Boykin vs labs? I love blm's but a Boykin is about the only other retriever I think I'd consider. Just never been around them so I don't know what I don't know. My current blm is basically a house pet, but he's getting older and I want another duck dog in the next 3-4 yrs as my boys get old enough to start chasing ducks with me.

A Boykin is pretty thin coated compared to a lab. If you hunt a lot in freezing temps probably would not want to go with a Boykin. They also get worn down pretty quick try to bring in big Canada's. The pros in my opinion is the small size in the house or hunting out of a boat. They also handle the heat really well in the dove field.
