How to Choose your White German Shorthaired Pointer?

White German shorthaired pointer is type of pointer. Usually their color is not pure white, they just have dominant white color. But before buying one German shorthaired pointer for you, you need to know and notice their identity first:

1. Look at the general appearance of the white German shorthaired pointer. This is an all-purpose gun dog that is capable of performance in both the field and in water, making it a versatile hunter. Look at his/her eyes and faces. The sharpness of his eyes and their sharp focus face is needed.

2. Make sure the size and proportion are correct for this breed. The white German shorthaired pointer males are -23 to 25 inches at the withers and weigh 55 to 70 pounds – and -The females are 21 to 23 inches at the withers and weigh 45 to 60 pounds- I suggest to buy a versatile and fertile white German shorthaired pointer, so they can descendant a fertile son too.

3. Check that the head is in proportion to the rest of the body, it should not be too light or too heavy. The medium sized eyes are intelligent-looking and should have a good and humored expression. Good white German shorthaired pointer has almond looked eyes, the brown nose should be very large and the nostrils should be well opened.

4. Look at the neck and body of the German shorthaired pointer. The neck may have moderate throatiness, and should be long enough to allow the jaws to reach game. The chest is rather deep and reaches to the elbows. This breed should not be roached or sway-backed. The white German shorthaired pointer should not be cowhocked.

5. Look at his fur, detect if your white German shorthaired pointer has perfect fur.

6. Feel the short, thick hair. It will feel tough to your hand. The ear and head hair is a bit softer and thinner.
