About
Piper, The German Shorthaired Pointer |
|

Purebred German Shorthaired Pointer was
adopted by
Kelly Foster from
Canada. |
Here's how
Kelly Foster describes
Piper :
Fully of energy, very smart, usually does what she is told to do ie: sit, down, wait (the usual). unconditional love and she loves her bedtime cuddles before i put her in her kennel at night. she loves to play ball, and enjoys her walks. her favorite toy is a "squeaky" ball. |
Does
Piper 's behavior show the inherent German Shorthaired Pointer
characteristics?
Although she has had no formal training for hunting, she does point. |
Special Achievement of Piper :
For 22 months old today, she is a joy to have around. a loving companion, can be demanding, loves to counter surf! very smart and loves to be the centre of attention. she is not aggressive but can be very protective of me. she loves other animals and thinks everyone and everything is her friend! |
Kelly Foster's advice on what type of family should adopt
a German Shorthaired Pointer:
No couch potatoes please! must enjoy walking -- on weekends we go for walks 5 times a day (usually each walk is about an hour long sometimes more), plus off leash play at least twice a day. during the week, because i work until 5, we still fit in 3 walks per nite (lasting 1/2 hr each walk). |

He is very good on the whole. we are in the process of housebreaking him and it is going well. your information has been so good. we now have the problem of poop. he has only gone when turned loose and now he has gotten over the shock of kennel and coming to live and accept us. when turned loose if he sees a bird he is gone. so what do we do? |
