I have a female that is about to be 3 in a few weeks. She didnt turn out to be a hunting dog because life threw other things our direction when it was time to work with her but she is a great dog. She minds well, loves to go to the farm and do everything with me I enjoy(except hunt) and absolutely loves to curl on on the couch or in the bed with us. As far as being aggressive, mine is as far from that as you can get. In fact I am not sure she even knows how to growl.
