This highly prized, loyal companion was the first of the hunting, pointing, and retrieving breeds to be brought from Germany. This book abounds with information on training the gundog, as well as on how to choose a GSP, whether as a show dog or as an affectionate family companion.

Okay for a beginner who needs basic info regarding training.,
By A Customer
This review is from: German Shorthaired Pointers Today (Hardcover)
Unfortunately, the paper is of a much higher quality than the information or organization of the book. There is very little information regarding American field trials. The scant info included is primarily about a few midwestern GSP trainers and owners. There is no information regarding NAVHDA field trials. The training book published by NAVHDA is a much better more systematic guide to training a verstile hunting dog such as the GSP.Most of the info on kennels and breeders is focused on show kennels and show dogs. For those readers interested in history of the GSP and current trends in breeding in a much more comprehensive manner, I recommend Der Deutsch-Kurzhaar. It costs 3 times as much but is 20 times better.

This book is informative for the novice GSP owner and also a useful reference book for owners who show and work. Valuable breed line information in one book.

German Shorthaired Pointers Today,

This review is from: German Shorthaired Pointers Today (Hardcover)
Great Book! This is what you should know, at the very least, before you go out to buy a German Shorthaired Pup. If your breeder isn't raising the litter this way look elsewhere. This breed is one of the smartest types of dog around. BUT you have to start them early and you can not slack up on them. If you follow the guides in this book it is easy, but Please give your dog these needed encouragements to be "ALL THAT HE CAN BE" If you were to follow this book to the letter both you and your dog will be winners.
