NAVHDA Breed of the Week no. 12: German Longhair Pointer aka Deutsch Langhaar

Country of Origin: Germany

Number Registered with NAVHDA: 484

Height: 18-22 inches
Weight: 55-80 pounds

The German Longhaired Pointer was developed in Germany in the 1700s and was originally a rather slow dog. Many historians believe it was ultimately crossed with setters and English Pointers in the 19th century to improve speed. Like most of the longhaired pointing breeds, the breed is descended from spaniels. One of the oldest of the "versatile breeds," it is but one of a few that disallow black as a color. The large Munsterlander was developed from the German Longhair after it was decided that the German Longhair must only be brown-and-white; the black-and-white strain became the ancestors of the Large Munsterlander. The German Longhaired Pointer is able to switch easily from a passionate hunting machine in the field to a calm, friendly, and intelligent companion in the home.

Currently NAVHDA recognizes 30 different breeds of pointing dogs. While each breed differs somewhat with respect to their physical characteristics, they all possess the versatility required to locate, point, and retrieve upland game, find and retrieve wounded waterfowl, and serve as well-mannered companions.
