It sounds like God is blessing you! I know that when a hunter has a dog that works well and trains well he likes to stick with that line to continue with.

We had a female lab that my husband just loved and she loved to be with him and retrieve for him when he hunted but we had her fixed when we first got her because we didn't want to mess with breeding. When she got too old to hunt my husband was sorry that we didn't have any off spring to train. She was a wonderful dog and we really miss her.

I would go with the man. Obviously his friends are impressed enough with his dog to see potential in his off spring!
