I actually know 2 guys in Va that hunt GSP's for ducks. Well, one is now out of the military and the other is on the ship with me. Both seem to handle the cold water well. They both wore those neoprene vests both times I hunted with them and then soon after, the dog was in the front with the seat warmers on while both us 200lb fuly grown dudes were wedged in the back with the guns and birds lol.
My golden retriever seems to handle both climates well. I hunted her in -2 wind chill in January 2015 up towards Williamsburg Va. Haven't gotten the chance to actually hunt her in La yet.
