German Longhaired Pointer puppies for sale across Canada

Breed history

The German Longhaired Pointer was developed in Germany in the 19th century by breeding various hunting dogs, including Spanish pointers, bloodhounds, and local German hunting breeds. The goal was to create a versatile, strong, and intelligent dog capable of pointing, tracking, and retrieving in a variety of terrains, including marshes and forests. The result was a large, powerful pointer with a long, protective coat and a strong work ethic. Though less common than other pointer breeds, the German Longhaired Pointer remains highly valued among hunters for its endurance, versatility, and trainability.
