Purebred German Shorthair Pointers
Our German shorthair puppies make excellent family-hunting companions. We have spent decades working to produce a smaller, mellower, house-sized version of the classic German shorthaired pointer. We refer to our Minnesota German shorthairs as "pocket pointers". Our German shorthaired pointers have all of the desired hunting instincts of quality pointers but their calmness and smaller sizes also make them well-suited for the home.

House-Sized German Shorthairs
Our AKC German shorthaired puppies for sale in Minnesota are the offspring of the same German shorthair pointers we use in our Brainerd MN bird hunting service. Their parents are extremely well-trained dogs, excellent hunters, and family pets. Our shorthair puppies are also much mellower than the majority of MN German shorthaired pointer puppies for sale. This is because dog temperament is one of the most important characteristics we consider when selecting GSP breeding pairs. Our shorthair pointers are known for their mellowness.
German Shorthair Puppies for Sale
We believe field trials have altered the overall temperament of most German shorthair pointers over the last forty years. As the skill levels of German shorthairs improved in modern trials, so did field trial requirements. Today's shorthairs have to run faster, cover greater distances, and find birds planted farther apart than before. Only the highest energy of German shorthair pointers can compete at these levels. This means most of today's AKC German shorthair puppies for sale sired by GSP field trial champions have the same drive as their parents. High-energy German shorthair pointers might be well-suited for the field trials but they're typically not the best fit for a home.
High energy German shorthair pointers may perform well in field trials but they are poorly suited for the home. This is the main reason we altered our vision of the perfect German Shorthair pointer so many years ago. We wanted to produce GSP puppies with fabulous hunting traits that were also fun to have in the house. This vision led us to a smaller, mellower, version of the German shorthaired pointer. Shorthairs that were great house companions and performed well in the field. Our Minnesota German shorthair puppies for sale are the product of thirty-five years of work.
