re: Labradoodle for duck hunting?

I have a standard poodle and love his personality. I learned very quickly that you can not handle them like a lab. He is very sensitive to force.

I have not trained him for hunting but it was incredibly easy to train the basic commands such as sit,here, stay etc. He loves the smell of the birds I bring home and loves retrieving them in the yard so I bet he could have been a decent duck dog.
