Things to Consider Before Getting a German Shorthaired Pointer 

I’ve adopted 3 GSP dogs over the years. They are so funny and active. The love they give is always so touching.

Ah, 10 monts. Such sweet puppies. Wait until she is 13 months. I've fostered about 4 puppies that weren't adopted until 18 months. It doubles between 10 and 13 months with all the emotional issues of a teenager. I recommend at least 2 people attempting to tire out a GSP teenager. Paw to face.. Yea that too. But they are so smart. All of them read my mind. Soul mates. Doggie day care.

Love this! 🙌🧡🐾

Such a beuty

Got one. I love ❤ her!!!

She is fabulous.

Such a cute dog!

My Shorthair got out of her puppy stage around 11!! She was 16 when I lost her 😢

Shes a pretty girl. I have a male that black & white like her and a female that's the liver & roan. They are the best, but as you said very high energy. 💜🐾🐾

Beautiful Nova :)

Very well done video. The ones I have known well are incredibly loyal to their families. Nova is a beautiful girl. Love the black, my Mr Bobo was black as well, my all time favorite out of all my pointers.

I apologize... on my last comment I thought it was Noah, not Nova. We have done some pet sitting and fallen in love with lots of dogs but the dog I most bonded with was a short-haired pointer that we pet-sat in Hawaii. That dog was "living the life" with access to go in and out as he liked. Nova has gorgeous coloring! 😍 Sounds like she is a natural hunter. Way to consistently train her. It will make life more pleasurable for you two and for Nova in the long run. Great share! Absolutely love the video of the two of you holding hands in the snow with Nova walking with you! She looks incredibly fun.

Beautiful ❤

Mine GSP used to run alongside the bicycle without a leash. It was the only way to exhaust him (20km a day) plus throwing a stick when only we stopped

She looks exactly like my 6 months old Kira 🥰🥰

She is gorgeous. I have two 9 1/2 and 10 years . 9 year old male is big couch potato 10 years old female still acts like she is two. Lots of trips to dog park.

Great 👍

Well said. We have 2… 2.5 years and 7 months.

I believe newer GSP should be advised that you need to limit some of their activities be smart and be mindful of possible dangers or exposure to possible injuries. I LOVE these dogs but at times they could be their own worst enemies. You have to establish yourself as the pack leader. I have paid for 2 ACL Surgeries, chiropractors, acupuncture, MRI’s, stitches in ears from running through thickets, stitches from impaling into broken branches. I have jumped into some of the nastiest marina water after these dogs. I have permanent holes & chew marks in my dry wall next to the “I want to go out now!” door. I am on their schedule rather than them being on mine. I have been the target of hunger strikes because someone didn’t get their sweet potato & canned salmon mixed in with her kibble. But my favorite of all is the fact that I have been pissed on marking me as a property patch. Yes these dogs are irresistible……..

Our girl is 10 now but still blazing fast when I throw the tennis ball with the ball launcher. She also howls to fire engine sirens, which is hilarious. But only fire engines, not police or ambulance sirens.

Beautiful girl ❤

Unconditional love. What more could be said for this God-given breed. Puppy-induced insanity? Well, yeah. But that aside . . .

No, having a spacious home will not make for training terrain - you really need 1-2 hours outdoors/day.
