The German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) was developed at the turn of the nineteenth century in Germany solely for the purpose of hunting. It is believe that there were quite a few dogs that went into creating this unique breed some of which include some German breeds such as the schweisshund, a German hound known for tracking, the Foxhound, different French hounds, assorted Scandinavian breeds, the German Bird Dog, and the Italian Pointer.

This breed is known for its ability to move quickly and with great strength. This is due to his very strong back legs that give him the ability to move rapidly and turn quickly if needed. His muzzle allows him to retrieve heavier game than most of the retrievers because it is strong and broad.

The German Shorthaired Pointer’s coat is water resistant due to his undercoat that is protected by guard hairs that are stiff. This also allows him to stay warm in even the coldest of weather. His color can vary, but is usually a dark brown, known as liver, black or both liver and black with some white mixed in. This mixed, darker coloring can make this breed harder to see in the winter seasons: a perfect dog for hunting without getting easily caught. When he is standing in snow and next to dead trees and shrubs, his white and brown coat camouflage him well.

The German Shorthaired Pointer can stand anywhere between twenty-one and twenty-five inches tall, categorizing him as a medium breed. Adults typically weigh anywhere from forty-five to seventy pounds and the female Pointer is usually a little bit shorter and slightly lighter than the male.

Although this gentle, obedient breed makes a great household pet, he needs to be trained at times to be affectionate and not “always on the hunt”. They are also very intelligent and bold. Generally speaking they are easy to train, but need a lot of attention as they can be easily distracted due to their superior scent ability. They have a tendency toward being stubborn, so early training is a necessity. Inherently, they are bred to hunt, so the ability to get much exercise and keep a high activity level is very important. He needs constant jobs to do due to his intense activity level. For everyday family life and having a GSP as a pet, this breed is recommended to be a friendly, fun and loyal addition to the family, who tend to be protective of young children. However, great care must be taken around young children because of their high energy and activity level.

If the German Shorthaired Pointer seems like they are hyperactive or very destructive, it is probably due to a lack of correct training or a lack of plenty of exercise. This breed develops very strong attachments and bondings with their owners and the families they are with. However, if they do not receive the correct amount of exercise, they will take it upon themselves to be sure that they do and thus have a potentially destructive tendency.

As the GSP is a large, active breed, the dogs can require quite a bit of food; however, they can also become obese if fed too much for individual activity levels. A healthy weight is that the last two ribs should be able to be felt under the coat and the dog should have a distinct and defined waist. Recommended feeding for the German Short haired Pointer is one and a half to two and a half cans of high-quality meaty product with biscuit added in equal parts or five cupfuls of a complete, dry dog food.

How do you feel about people who overly humanize dogs?

We all call our dogs our babies and kids but how about people who are really overly humanize dogs?
Like the dogs that have more clothes then their owners. Dogs that have diamond studded collars. Dogs that have painted self portraits of themselves. Dogs that have their own rooms full furnished and dogs that eat better then their owners…and many more things.
I’m not saying its bad or anything but its just a little strange to me.

I don’t like it. It can create all sorts of behaviour problems.

Dogs are dogs and should be treated as such, not as human baby substitutes.

My dog is a chow australian shepherd mix, should you cut the hair short in the summer?

I adopted a Chow Australian shepherd mix dog from the animal shelter. She is 2 years old. Should you cut their fur for the summer. She was upset at the vets first visit, so she doesn’t like strangers that much. I was wondering,Should I get her professionally cut, or should I do it myself? Thanks for any help!

No.
DEFINITELY no.
Groomers like money, but the only genuine reasons for clipping a dog are:
(a) When a vet needs to clear an area to operate or to clean up a wound.
(b) When a long coat is so matted that you can’t release the knots with a bath + a comb out.

All else is stupid fashion.
The original pompom cut still seen on many Poodles was practical – in those days those dogs were tossed overboard to retrieve the rope tied to the fisherman’s lost net. You might have noted that dogs with wet coats shake when they stop galloping around. Clipping such dogs reduced the amount of water they could spray – the bobbles were left in hope of keeping those joints warm & dry and thus delaying arthritis.
But how many Standard Poodles do YOU know that go out on fishing boats? (Can you imagine a Toy Poodle or a Miniature Poodle towing a rope back to a fishing boat?)

You, and others who think that clipping cools a dog, do not understand that dogs do NOT perspire through their skin (humans do, cats & dogs don’t). Their perspiration is entirely through their lungs, their tongue, and their mucus passage, with a tiny amount through their feet. So it is important that dogs ALWAYS have access to drinking water, in order to keep their passages moist to promote cooling. When over-heated they, like us, enjoy a paddle or a swim in cool water, which cools them via the naturally exposed skin of feet and armpits and belly+groin. Dogs die very quickly from heat-stroke when left in a vehicle on a summer’s day.
Removing the coat removes the INSULATION a dog REQUIRES to protect it from the heat of the sun’s rays and to protect it from the UV radiation that produces both sun-burn and skin cancer, so is a VERY BAD IDEA!!!!!!

“raining4…” has a LOT to learn about dogs AND about the English language.

Tired of making a whole pot of coffee when you just want a single cup, just one cup? Fed up with the whole tedious process of removing the filter, rinsing the filter container and pot, and measuring the next pot when the first one went unfinished? Wondering how to get the oils from the last pot of flavored coffee out of the coffee maker? Well, the days of boiling whole pots of water just to have a single cup of coffee are over. Now you can turn coffee making from a chore into a hassle-free process that gets you a great tasting, piping hot cup of single serve coffee in less than a minute, perfectly measured every single time.

One cup coffee makers, including the popular Keurig coffee maker and Tassimo brewer, can brew your favorite gourmet tea or coffee in less than a minute, eliminating the need to prepare a whole pot. For people on-the-go, these fast brewing machines are a welcome addition to the home or workplace.

The single cup coffee maker is also a great energy saver. In the time it might take to heat up one pot of regular coffee or to drive over to the local coffee shop, a one cup coffee maker can brew several differently flavored hot drinks in as little as 40 seconds each. Another perk of these machines is the variety of drinks they can produce. For instance, Keurig provides customers with hundreds of coffee or tea K-Cups from which to choose. K-Cups are easy-to-insert dispensers, which fit neatly into the coffee maker with little effort and no clean-up.

So how do single cup coffee makers work? The brewing process is as easy as one, two, three:

1. Fill the reservoir of your single cup coffee maker with cold water.

2. Select your favorite flavored coffee pod or K-cup and place it into the coffee chamber.

3. Place your coffee cup below the coffee chamber. Pull the lever down (or push the button depending on the type of machine you own) and watch your cup fill with hot, gourmet coffee!

Clean up is even simpler as there are no grinds to clean up or filters to throw away. Just remove the used coffee pod or K-cup and you’re ready to start anew.

Oh, there is a final step for you — enjoying your delicious, fresh brewed single cup of coffee! What more could a coffee lover ask for?

The personality of a lively child put into dog- this might be a good way of describing the general personality of terriers. But as it appears, that still would not justify their temperaments.

These dogs came from the British Isles where they were first oriented to hunting fox, rat, otter and the likes over and under the ground. And as its name suggests, ‘terrier’ came from the word ‘terra’ which means, ‘earth’.

While terriers may be identified through their prominent physical characteristics, they are still divided into various breeds that separate one kind from another.

The following are the subgroups of the terrier breed:

Show Terriers- These are basically bred as small dogs and are used for show rings.

Bull and Terrier Types- these came from breeding between bull dogs and terriers. Only in the last quarter of 1800’s did the breeders separate a number of bull dogs from terrier types for distinction.

Hunting and Working Terriers- The breed that was primarily bred for hunting.

Toy Terriers- These are the smaller versions of terriers, which are basically categorized into the companion breed.

To help you understand the various natures of terrier dogs, we have prepared some dog profiles here, please read on.

Airedale Terrier- This is known to be the largest dog in the Terrier breed. Standing an average of 23 inches from the shoulder, this dog shows off both beauty and elegance that make them fit for both dog obedience trials and show rings.

A cross-breed between Otterhound and Black and Tan Terrier, Airedale possess good skill in scent and superb swimming prowess.

Australian Terrier- Probably one of the dog types that have gotten to so many out-crossings with other dog breeds. A cross breed between the forerunner of Dandie Dinmont and rough coated terrier is said to have been migrated into England. The offspring of which was taken to Australia. With the scarcity of dog breeds in this land, many dogs had been crossbred into it which later resulted to a small type having the characteristics of terriers while being a good watchdog and ratter. It stands 10 to 11 inches with a life expectancy of 12 to 14 years.

Border Terrier- A True-blue working terrier, this dog is marked by its medium built while proving to work far better than what its appearance may give. Border Terriers are agile and alert while having the capacity to fit into narrow gaps especially during hunting.

Aside from its being affectionate and good adaptation to training, Border terriers can also make good family pets.

Bull Terrier- Originally bred for dog fighting and bull baiting, this dog is known to have been well-accustomed to courage and good resistance to pain. However, when the bloody dog fights were banned in England during the 1800’s, most breeders turned to breeding milder dogs.

Bull Terriers came from these fighting dogs combined with Dalmatian and English Terrier to produce all-white specie. This new breed though is very much reserved from starting fights which gave them the nickname ‘White Cavalier’.

There are of course a variety of other terrier species. Initially, you might find them interesting enough to catch your attention but a closer look would lead you to further knowing them. Who knows, you might find your ideal type of dog in this breed.
