Crazy hunting dog gets his first groom | German Shorthaired Pointer 

My 1st doggo was part pointer. He barked three times in his twelve years, each time to warn us of danger. Duke was truly the best of buddies for a young boy, and I miss him 45 years later.

My neighbor had one of these dogs, name was just "Boss". He'd run from yard to yard and check on everyone (cul-de-sac) just to see if he could help. He'd try to help with anything... fishing, gardening, backyard football. He was everyone's friend. No one cared that he basically roamed free. Cool dog.

Thanks Vanessa for taking such good care of our boy! He loved it.

My childhood dog was a pointer. My dad bought her so she could collect the ducks when he went duck shooting, but unfortunately the pup was scared of ducks 😂

If this is his first visit, I can only assume that Reggie was simply deserving a pamper - and frankly I completely agree. The bestest boi!

It's literally impossible to tire this breed out. They just go and go and then go some more. You will be exhausted and need your bed and these guys will just be getting started. Great hunters and trail dogs.

“Aggressive hunter… fearless protector” Meanwhile, Reggie: *shivering, crying* 😂

It's a reflection on you and your service that Reggie's owners want to support you, even though their dog doesn't NEED grooming. it's really nice to see :)

Lol. The rottie in the background is so paw defensive he even gets upset at other dogs nail trims!!

My late father used to love Pointers, he had an English Pointer that he adopted as a rescue, he was the most loyal dog you ever saw. He would happily walk alongside my father without a leash, never once running off or getting aggressive at other dogs. He would walk him down to the nearby coastal beach and he would run for ages, happy as can be, and would never get vocal unless he was being playfully wound up. I think he would have adored this video.

I had a GSP for nearly 16 years. She was the best dog EVER - sweet, fun, funny, loving, VERY easy to train, perfectly mannered and behaved. Great breed!

I love how all the comments are beautiful stories about these dogs from prior or current owners. 💖 Really sweet to just scroll and read a bunch.

My aunt and uncle rescued a GSP years ago. His name was Jet and he was such a great dog! He was so fast, hence his name, and could run for hours on end. He was best friends with their other big dog at the time, a female Dalmation named Ladybug, Bug for short. They watched over the property, Jet would great with licks, Bug with growls until she accepted you, then she switched to licks too ;) They are both buried under a tree by the lake in front of the house so they can still see who is coming up the driveway :)

I never thought about our groomers missing our doggies as much as we do :(

My first and best dog was Ginger, a German Shorthaired Pointer. On top of being as described here, she was the smartest dog I ever met. She was also an incredible family dog, helping to raise our son from the time he was 3. She was gentle, loyal, and protective - everything you could possibly want in a family dog. She's been gone 25 years, but I still miss her.

I had a German Shorthaired Pointer named Buck for 18 years. A very energetic working dog, and he was also very sweet with my kids. I still miss my handsome boi Buck.

Rottweiler: You're KILLING him! Reggie: Chill out, bro.

I absolutely love Reggie. My grandfather used to own a German Pointer that he'd use for hunting and tracking down the bodies of fowl like geese here in PA. His name was Severus, and he lived to the ripe old age of 13 before he passed away of natural causes. His last year of his life, my grandmother made a trip to McDonald's every day to buy him a Big Mac, because life is short and he deserved it.

I like the way how she patiently explains about all of the dog breeds ❤️

This video made me emotional! Growing up my next door neighbors had one of these gorgeous dogs. His name was Hansi. He was incredibly sweet and gentle interacting with a little kid but when he was with adults or just being himself in his yard it was like someone turned on his turbo boost. He wasn’t my dog but I saw him often enough that when I think of my childhood and that particular home, Hansi is always part of my happy memories. ❤️

Oh yes. The German Short haired pointer is an excellent hunting dogs. We rescued one. We named him Grinn, He loved to smile so much.

I used to work at a vets office. Two hunting buddies,one regular German short hair, named Ruger and a German wire short hair named Winchester. They were so fun and loving and great hunting buddies. They were both very well behaved after the bathing started but to get them into the tub was always a challenge. When you brought him through and he started going around and around in circles it was very reminiscent lol. If you have a lot of energy and let them do their work whether it be actual hunting or photography with some catching & retreiving involved these are great family pets.🐶🐶💞

I miss my short hair 38 years later. Her name was Bullitt; we lived on a farm so she got plenty of action. On my beautiful dog!

"The pointer will make labs look sluggish" Nothing truer has been said. They are beyond high energy.... run 10 miles and theyll still keep going

When you pour the shampoo in the shampoo nozzle it looks so nice

Another reason for the name Pointer comes from their extremely pointy elbows that they are not afraid to use if you are taking too long to wake up in the morning. One of those to the ribs and you are not going back to sleep anytime soon.

Our family has had several pointers.. they're basically the only dogs I've ever known. Just amazing dogs.. incredible temprament, funny, sometimes goofy, and really intelligent. Endlessly patient with children. Just amazing family pets if you can deal with their energy... two good walks a day!

I have an English Pointer, and he is by-far one of the smartest, most stoic dogs that I've ever had. He's knows when to be playful, and when to be serious.

Going from cute tiny yorkies to Reggie is quite a change 🤣

You're so lucky you get to touch all those velvety soft ears.

I love how calm he is with you ♥️ not antsy or nervous at all. His angel siblings must have let him know you were one of their people ♥️

I especially like the rottie in the background, singing the song of their people in solidarity. 😆

My dad had a dog like this, Roxie, she was so sweet. We had free range chickens on our farm and when she was young she would point at them but she never hurt them.

First 10 seconds were like, "nope, nope, don't wanna, not sure what's going on here." LOL

I grew up with two GSPs in our house-our first dog Bruno was not your typical Shorthair, he was thick and stocky and very much a chill couch potato. Our second shorthair Austin was the epitome of the breed, high energy, loyal, smart and a total goof. They were both absolutely wonderful family dogs and my mom still has a huge soft spot for them! I always get excited when I see Shorthairs in anything because I always remember my two beloved boys.

I loved my GSP. So much energy. She always made me laugh. Never off duty. At 2 am, she'd be standing under a tree, staring at the birds who went to bed lol. I miss her

I love Pointers and their pattern! What a good doggie.

“Crazy” is as synonymous with GSPs as “Stubborn” is to huskies

Reggie is such a well-mannered gentledog. Beautiful coat and face and personality to boot.

I grew up with several german shorthairs- each and every one was basically a sausage full of energy! They were definitely ones to get into trouble if you didn't give them enough stimulation and exercise, and they had an absolutely ridiculous amount of energy. Even as they got older, they kept that same energy. I miss the first two we had (Sadie and Emma), but that just means I'll have to give more love to the newest puppy, Tia : )

His sweet widdle face when you were washing it with the shampoo was so cute!

0:54 reminds me of my family’s 8 month old puppy Bowzer, mostly due to his droopy squishy jowls it’s so cute cause he looks like a little old baby man with the energy of a toddler. So I hope Reggie’s family takes ample opportunity to enjoy the squish of his face

A well behaved dog is a true testament to the love and training the owners have dedicated a lot of time and energy and that stuff makes me so happy I shed the happiest tears

My childhood dog was a GSP, an absolute lunatic (first of her litter, of course)! Had the biggest personality, needed 3 long off-leash walks a day, and loved us more than anything. I’ll always see GSP’s fondly because of Cali 🥺💕

Imagine a world where dogs live as long as their humans do!

One of my dogs, Pemigewasset (Pemi, for short), is a 9-year-old GSP/Black lab mix, and whenever he’s out in the yard, his GSP side comes out and he lifts one paw up whenever he sees something. And despite being part black lab, he absolutely hates water lmao. But he will always be my scaredy cat handsome boy

Love when he got in he was like 'nope open the door'

I also use the Zoom Groom on our shorthair. I find it’s best to do this at least once a week since those little hairs stick to everything! Great video! Thanks for highlighting this wonderful breed!

Such a well behaved boy. It's a testament to his owners. Good dogs equal great owners.

Shame, he shivered throughout the while process, but stayed a good boy! 💞💞💞

This dog was the most tolerant and relaxed I have seen on your channel. Nothing irked him No better ambassador for his breed.

One of the workers at my Great-grandma's nursing home would bring their dog into work everyday. I'm not sure if he is the same breed but he looked exactly like this one. He was always running around the home bringing smiles to the residents. I remember playing with him a lot as a kid. What amazing dogs

We have an 8 year old pointer/lab mix and he really is the best dog ever. He's a little lower energy than a typical GSP but still much higher energy than a lab. He points, he loves to chase the ball, and he's very silly. He has the big chest of a GSP but the hind end of a lab, so he walks a little funny. Overall he's very sweet and protective. We would strongly consider getting a GSP or another mix in the future, they're excellent dogs. One thing nobody ever talks about is how much personality GSP and mixes have. Booker is very attached to his toys and won't sleep unless he has his 'lizard', which he's had since he was a puppy and has never destroyed. He also loves to cuddle and thinks he's much smaller than he is when it comes to lap time. He's around 70ish pounds.

i have one, she's old, but she was so gentle when i was younger because i was a baby, she's truly the most gentlest dog!

First of all . My sincere condolences to Reggie's owner for the loss of Rocky, Famous, and Kennedi. Rest in peace 😞. Also, what a handsome and well behaved boy Reggie is. Thanks Girl With The Dogs and staff for the work you do. You're awesome 🙂

Had a pointer X when I was a teenager, she was a great dog but took a lot of walking as she was constantly full of beans. Very obedient though, I loved her.

In doggie day care these dogs were always the weirdos 😂 I love them.

Your videos encouraged me to get an equigroomer for my Carolina dog who hates absolutely everything to do with de shedding and wouldn’t you know it? He loves the dang thing. Kind of wondering if I should try the zoom groom too 😂

As a receptionist at a doggie daycare, I can confirm how crazy GSPs are without enough stimulation. I live in the south in the beach city so they’re extremely popular here but sadly, not everyone puts enough time in them that they deserve :(

I have a gsp, she has basically no energy, she doesn’t play fetch, she just lays around, but she is the most loving and caring dog I’ve ever met

We dog-sat a GSP and I can confirm-he needed an hour’s off-leash jaunt in the morning, and another after dinner or he would go all squirrelly in the house. Beautiful, friendly dog!

i love dog's faces when she washes them so adorable ❤️

My rescue GSP died just before Christmas after 15 years with me. Thank you for this video.

My uncle breeds these dogs, super great dogs that I got to experience all through my childhood. He had a huge property and would run them a couple times a day with his 4-wheeler and then when we would all go to visit they'd get to play with everyone

GSPs are a great all around dog

I really love your channel. I used to volunteer at the humane society when I was young (13), and took the dogs on walks and played with them. I love how you explain the breeds history and temperaments. I don’t have a desire to own a dog, I have a more cat lifestyle. But I love my friends dogs and learning more about them. Good luck with your work and channel. You’re very talented.

They are not crazy. They are just being themselves

I have hunted many times with German Shorthairs fantastic Bird Dogs

I love his eyes and how calm he his.

Your videos never fail to put a smile on our faces.

My first dog exposure was my grandfather’s pointer “Duke” started a life long love of dogs.

Had a GSP (Snoopy) for 16 years, we were outdoors people and... he enjoyed his life to the fullest! Still miss him..he was the best loving dog we've ever had!

My first dog that was /mine/ was an Australian Shorthair (mixed with something with a lot of extra skin, she was a funny girl) and her name was "Angel". She lived up to that name perfectly and I still miss her desperately. She was such a perfect, well behaved, sweet little thing.

I accidently addopted a mountain cur puppy. I thought he was just a mixed breed but nope. He goes with me and my son almost everywhere and is very well behaved. He loves when we pick up my son from school.

Upclose video = great. Thanks to vid person. It’s non-jarring , smooth, and upclose of dog faces captures personalities. You also show her hand brushing at a good angle for viewers. Thank you, Vid Person

Your description of a working dog who can also be a family dog reminded me of my late Brittany. He gave us 15 wonderful years, and legit did not slow down until about age 11. I like to think Hubble and Reggie would have been friends 🥰

Oh my gosh! I love pointers! Had two as hunting dogs and family dogs growing up.

I have two. They are absolute beautiful, kind, and funny dogs. I defiantly recommend one if you’re looking for a dog.

That kiss on the snoot was perfect. Reggie was happy.

My GSP is 15 years old and no longer pulls my arm out of it's socket, but he still has a great personality.

Oh my goodness what a good doogie. I just wanna kiss his lil squishy snoofer

i just lost my Hank (gsp) 6 months ago, he was 16 and so handsome....nothing will ever fill the void left behind by a gsp, even though he was non stop pia lol, he loved his daddy more then anything and i will miss my boy forever....ps that is one of the only tools to remove that needle hair hahahaha.....good boy reggie

I have a German shorthair pointer as a foster. She is sooo sweet. Her owner had to go into a home and she needs home.

I love the whole pointer group. I lost my weimaraner a year ago, at the age of almost 13. Miss that boy.

My favorite is their ears they're so big and floppy😭❤

GSP!!! ♡♡ I was hoping for one. We had a boy names Spott. He was brown. And the biggest cry baby:) he was so attached to us and always wanted to be near us. We tested the whole egg carring thing and it works. They can carry raw egg in their mouth without breaking it. He was also a cuddler. Such a sweet boy. And he could hike all day and beg for another walk the minute we got home.

I love that she goes in depth describing each breed. I'm not a dog owner, but if I decide to get one, I want to make sure I get the exact right breed for me and my family, and this helps! I don't want to choose based on which ones I think are the cutest, but the one that will be happiest with my family's personality.

These videos seem incomplete without them running in the yard! Please bring them back!

I had a dog who was half boxer and half pointer. Fantastic dog! It was such a privilege to have her as my beloved pet for ten years.

My dog growing up was "Reggie". A noble and endearing name...to me, anyway :)

My son has an 11 year old GSP and they are inseparable when he's home from work. Still loves to go for long walks. He adopted him about four years ago. Funny thing is some dogs he completely ignores and a couple he likes to be with.

My childhood best friend’s dog was a pointer. When they would drive back to their house, he had a habit of jumping out of the car and running the last 1/4 mile or so. Miraculously, he only hurt himself once doing it

Love Reggie❤️ Pointers are adorable, as are Weimaraners🤗🙏💕

Now that is a dog in my taste. Thank you sweet girl for sharing this!

You couldn't resist stealing a kiss. I probably wouldn't have been able to resist either.

You’re a good woman. Bless you and the doggos

I have a pointer mix as a service dog, and can definitely agree with the energy! Keeping up with her is how I got into running and hiking as frequently as I do. She points, tries to play with anything dog-sized (including groundhogs and feral cats), and tends to adopt anyone who spends more than 5 minutes in her presence. She loves working and if she didn't have a job I think she'd find one! I love her to pieces.

Such a beautiful breed! My father got our German shorthair pointer from a friend of his. Many ppl didn't want her because she hardly had any spots, but it never bothered my dad. Bibi was an excellent hunting partner and liked to kill any animal sight lol. Unfortunately, we had to put her down almost ten years ago. She lived until she was almost 18 years old! Still miss her to this day, but I know she's up in heaven, hunting pheasants. Animals are truly God's gift to us. God bless to anyone who reads this!

Beautiful GSP. His rich brown coat is amazing.

Why crazy. He was the best behaved dog you've ever had.
