I have a 7 month old lab pup, and she is well on her way to being the best dog I have ever owned. I look forward to taking her on a couple of rivers I fish. I'll only take her if she listens, and isn't a pain in the arse to other people.

A word of advice to those who take their dogs fishing. As I have mentioned many times, alot of our rivers are very crowded. Very common to see wads of line, hooks, etc on the banks. In the last year, their have been several posts on a Midwest board, about guys dogs swallowing hooks , or getting hooks in their paws, while walking the banks. Hard for a dog to pass up something stinky to eat. Keep an eye on your pooch, as it can be very expensive and painful as hell for your dog.

I saw Todds dog a couple of years ago on a river we were fishing, and he was a riot to watch. Unfortunately, Guiness was by me, because I was catching all the fish. LOL
