Looking for a puppy

Looking for a puppy - 07/17/21 11:37 AM

I had to put my old dog Lorrie down a couple of weeks ago. She lived to be 16, and had a hell of a life. Best dog ever.
I’m ready to get a new dog, and want a German wirehair pointer. I’ve only been able to find a few breeders in Texas, and I know one of them personally, and that guy is not someone that I put a great deal of trust in. It’s a long shot, but do any of y’all know any GWP breeders? I don’t need world grand champion of the universe hunting dog, mostly a pet or companion dog, but I would like to hunt the dog a few times per year.
I’ve reached out to a couple of GWP rescue places, but they don’t have any pups available, so I’m hoping someone on TFF knows someone.

Also, here’s a photo of my favorite intersection.

Sorry I can’t help with the puppy, but I do want to compliment you on the choice of intersections.
It’s an excellent intersection.

My Deutsch Drahthaar was a good dog until I had to dumpster him

I have a PITA 9 month old German Shepherd I'll ship to you. She can identify as any dog you want her to. She already identifies as German. So you almost there.

Mongo would be a great name for the dog

Puppies are in short supply...
It is because of covid
All the dogs have quit working. It is a shame. What has this world come to when you can't get a dog to breed?
Sorry for the loss and good luck with the search

I adopted a lab from a rescue site and his name was Mongo, knew that was the dog for me.

I bought mine from a guy in Mission. Actually rescued her sister too at one point but she got out and got a bad case of the car bumper. I believe bitch was DD and sire was GWP. Awesome dogs. Had to put mine down at 11yo, had some health issues. Good luck. That's all I got.

Sorry for the loss of your good puppy dog sir! angel2 GREATEST animals God ever invented!!!

Also...you must be a terrible shot. If I was going to “hunt my dog” (not that I would ever do that), I’m pretty sure one time would be the max.

After watching my ex's dog for 4 days I don't think I will ever have another puppy. She needs to rename it "Wild Thing". It jumps up on my patio table. Also pees all over when excited. I am surprised it hasn't climbed the pool ladder.
