Anyone with any experience with these dogs as house/family companions and hunting waterfowl? I am getting a puppy in October and would like any advice.

Can make one hell of a hunting dog,but they get large. Can be very temperamental and can be very aggressive towards other dogs. Also can be aggressive to people also. Very hardheaded and can be tough to train. But once you get them where you want them you can't stop them. They can be hunting machines. I had a few of them and a treated 2x2 is your best friend to keep them in line. Very loyal and protective if it get attached to kids. Mine used to try to tear the door down when we got fussed at or whipped.
It's hard to kiss the lips at night that chews your a$$ all day long.

I have owned two over the years. Hardheaded is an understatement.  They were bred as hard, big water hunting dogs and as protection dogs. They do both very good. They are very protective of THEIR house/yard and no nonsense fighters. Both of the ones I had would bite anyone who came in the backyard uninvited. They make a great house guard dog because the burgler thinks they are just Labs....big mistake as they soon find out. They damn sure ain't a Lab.....
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

they were trained to guard the owners boats while docked. They don't take prisoners either.....
My first one would hit another aggressive dog running full open, never slow and knock the stuffing out of ANY dog. She was on its neck as soon as it hit the ground. She would hold em down till they quit struggling and then let em go....
