German Longhaired Pointing Dog


Other names : Langhaar

History

The origins of the German Longhaired Pointing Dog are not well-known. Some believe that this spaniel is the result of crosses between the German Spaniel (Deutscher Wachtelhund) and French spaniels. Splashes of Irish Setter and Gordon Setter blood may have been added. Despite his attributes, the German Longhaired Pointing Dog is uncommon both in Germany and France.

Description

With his effective nose, he can adapt to any style of hunting. He searches actively and has an ample range. He is obedient and very easygoing.

He needs space and exercise, as well as regular brushing.
