Springador advice please

Hello, we are a household of 4 adults and one 6yr old and are considering a Springador puppy for our family.
I have previously had a working springer so am somewhat aware of the level of craziness and exercise that is involved but this is our first as a family with a young child, and would really appreciate any advice about what we would need to consider - both positive/negative. I would also very much appreciate any advice about where/how to find a reputable breeder. I worry a lot about getting it wrong! Thank you in advance.

I have a springador, 4yrs old now. Shebis ljne a slightly less crazy springer in a mini lab body.

Ball and food obsessed and up for anything although from around d 2yrs old she will happily sleep the time away till we go out for a walk.

I do hoopers with her which she absolutely loves and we compete now.

We got our from a gun dog breeder who are kc registered for their springer and labradors so hips and elbows were done etc.

That may be the best way forward but will probably mean parents will be from working lines and be busier.

Here she isbdoing her favourite thing.She is the best.

Springador advice please
