Question guys how far is it true that pedigree plays a huge role in rearing a gun dog..thing being is it only Labs, pointers etc who can be trained or a mongrel/any breed can also be trained to do the same.

working strain... gun dog

imho almost all dogs from good working stock or strain will train easily. Do check with the breeder that the pup is from working strain.

Grandfather was a very experienced gun dog trainer, had bred & trained several field trail champions in India. The Gun Dog league of India ceased to exist once hunting was banned ..
